Cigars + Booze

[myndcraft]

It's a no brainer that sipping the right drink can elevate your favorite cigar to another level. So what are some of your favorite combinations?

Alec Bradley Maxx the Fix with a glass of Johnny Walker Black. Love the combination even though I cant do it a lot

Knee Deep Brewing's Simtra Triple IPA - and most double IPA's

 

I do like a good scotch, but that can be too much with a cigar at times. a big cab works too ;-)

This past weekend I burned a Te Amo dominicana blend with a wonderful 2008 Peachy Canyon Zinfandel. The cigar really pulled out a lot of the flavors in the wine. I always like to enjoy a big red wine with a cigar, I feel that you get more out of the wine and I can have a couple glasses of wine vs. a couple glasses of scotch.

This weekend I had one of Pete Johnsons L'Atelier with a Fireside Red from Vahling Vineyards (we were at a wine festival in eastern IL). I prefer a Oliva or Rocky Patel Connecticut with either Woodford Reserve or Angels Envy on the rocks. It really depends on what I'm drinking; if I'm drinking top shelf stuff, I go with a mild cigar, so it doesn't over power the drink, I pair a medium cigar with pretty much anything else.
