  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Strangest thing you've ever paired a cigar with:

At present I have a highball of Knockando with about 1 finger left, and a strawberry milkshake, to go with my Oliva Serie G.

... I have no idea how I arrived at this most curious of combinations.

I tried a pairing of I don't remember what cigar but I was drinking grappa. Not so much. The fire of the grappa totally killed any taste of the cigar immediately.

Was that any good? I haven't played with pairings too much. Mostly beer and cola.

Over in the box hydration was very important. I was usually having a water either straight up or with Emergen-C in it (Black Cherry or Berry). If not that it was a Gatorade.

I can see a bloody mary going well with some of the cigars I've got.

The scotch + the cigar was very nice.
The milkshake ... eh, it wasn't *unpleasant* but I don't think it'll be come a regular thing. :rofl:

I ussually drink scotch, bourbon, or water. But yesterday I had a sweetend Iced tea, with lemon. Drank it while smoking a Gurkha Black Dragon Robusto. Very enjoyable.

I hung up the bottle, going on three years now. So when I want the "Betty Ford Speed Ball" I fire up and chase it with sugar free Monster or No Fear. Makes for a nice little buzz....
