I've enjoyed cigars with just about every alcoholic beverage.....except wine.
What are your favorite pairings?
I had a Cabernet Sauvignon with a CAO Icon the other day that when paired made both enjoyable. Cabs tend to be a bit to acidic, dense and tannic for me and the cigar was just kind of kick you in the teeth . When paired the harsher elements of both where tamed and the more nuanced favors came to the front.
When I look at my wine cabinets almost 60% of our bottles are Pinot Noir so that probably says something about the type of wine I enjoy most but I'm still learning and experimenting with new combinations is half the fun.
