What is your favorite opera to listen to while enjoying a cigar? Is there a particular combination of opera and cigar that you think goes well together?

Are you sure those are cigars that you have been smoking?

Really different post, I like all kinds of music, and if it is classical or opera, then maybe Wagner, das Valkrie, or something like that! Really got off on the soundtrack from Moulin Rouge (Kidman and McGregor) the other day while smoking a LaGloria Serie R #6! Charlie

"la boehme" victoria de los angeles and bjorling and a monte 5. also a fire going and rain coming down.
any aria with monserrat caballe but especially "o mio babbino caro" from gianni schicchi. if you don't cry everytime, you are not worthy.

Theatre speakers all around, lights low, feet up on the sofa, eyes closed, a glass of port within easy reach and a Phillie Blunt fired up, with the sound of "One Life To Live" filling my home!!!!!

I'm much more of a rock kind of guy but I think it has to be La Traviata. It's the first one I saw that was really well done and that I enjoyed.
