what is your beverage of choice

[DaveDFD]

while you smoke a cigar?? what do you have and why... include alcoholic drinks and non alcoholic!! gogogogogo!

 

[csodagyerek]

I likes me some Calvados, because the apple seems to brings the cigar flavors out

 

[blooz4u]

I enjoy a nice glass of Ron Matusalem Gran Reserva 15 years, neat.

Coffee, Whiskey or Port..... all are supporting the taste of cigars really good

 

[Zen Cigar Man]

water, coffee, diet pepsi, scotch (I'm cheap - I like Isle of Jura).

 

[DeeDubya]

Kahlua on the rocks. Simple, but for me the coffee and sweetness compliment most cigars. Of course a Black/White Russian work as well.

It depends on the cigar really. For me the stronger the cigar, the stronger the drink need be. A good single malt Scotch or Irish Whiskey is nice. Brandies, Cognacs and Armagnacs go great with Tats and CCs IMO. If the cigar is mild then my choice would be a bottle of cold Dasani.

I prefer a fresh Mojito; the lime juice and mint seems to clean the palate/tongue pretty well. If I don't have time to mix one up I use the prepared Bacardi Mojito mix over ice.

Coffee goes well for me. Iced in the summer hot in the winter. Beer always is a great accompaniment as well, can never go wrong with beer.

+1 for the Mojito! Have been doing this recently and the citrus and sweetness is surprisingly refreshing paired with a cigar. Seems like it is a great way to cleanse the palate/senses while smoking.

Water. If it's the morning, then coffee.

 

[derfatdutchman]

Really depends on the cigar and sometimes why I'm smoking. If I'm tring a new cigar I try to stick to water or unsweetened iced tea. Other then that beer, rum, burbon, scotch, coffee all match well with cigars.

1- Sparkling Water (Mild/Medium bodied cigars)
2- Green Tea (Full bodied cigars)
3- Coffee (Full bodied cigars)

I don't typically pair a drink with a cigar, my palate isn't quite that sophisticated. Usually a good beer, some Johnny Gold, or a nice rum. Matusalem, Appleton 21

Like I said in the last "what do you like to drink while smoking" post, Coke Zero.

No worries DFD, we've all reposted topics already covered, it's all good!

 

[G-Dub96]

Sounds crazy but Kool-Aid!

 

[aea6574]

I like a nice bourbon.

 

[Moro]

A'right, here comes the list (it all depends on the mood, the cigar,...): Sparkling water (NEVER witha pipe, though; gives a blood load of tongue bite), plain water, coffee, esspresso, rum (añejo, straight; sometimes white in mojito), bourbon (straight or in RARE ocassions a mint juleep), irish whiskey (straight), scotch (straight), port/red/white wine, and pretty much anything. Mostly rum and coffee, though.

 

[MP.]

Mostly beer for me. I like a nice bitter IPA or a stout. I've also gone with coffee or a cream soda.
