Of course it depends on the time of day, but mine would have to be a single malt scotch whiskey.

I usually have coffee with my morning smoke on the way to work. In the evenings I'll have water most of the time. I am not a big liquor drinker, I'm quite a wuss in that regard.

Either a fuller bodied beer or ale (Guinness, Anchor Steam Porter, Negra Modelo), or good old fashioned Vodka (Stoli, Skyy).

Most of my daytime smokes are with water while my home smokes at night are hopefully with a nice port. :blob:

I don't drink anything when smoking a cigar. If I have to (To wash down bits of tobacco, or when I go into spasmodic coughing from choking on my own saliva... nice, huh? :wtf: ) it's just water.

I've tried sampling cigars with different beverages, but I found that I like JUST the flavor of the cigar. I do see where coffee would go well, but I only drink that a few times a year. Different strokes, I guess.

Basically most of my summer smokes I had with a big glass of water. It was more to keep my mouth from drying out so I could enjoy the taste of the cigar alone

Water, iced tea, soda, beer, scotch, rum and bourbon are all options ... it just depends on the time of day and the cigar.

I've been enjoying a cup of coffee but lately it has been a nice stout.

Young's double chocolate is great!

Matching cigars and drinks is great fun ... in general I'm a scotch drinker but rum or coffee seem to go extremely well with most nay cigar.

I had my first Young's DC over the weekend. Very nice! I also bought some others to compare:

Stone Smoked Porter
Rogue Shakespear Stout
Bison Chocolate Stout
Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout
