Knob Creek or Basil Haydens with ice. Ice water with a lemon twist (This one is probably the best because it cleanses the palate).

I'm with X on this...Cuba Libre's by the picther! Any thing with "Glen" in the title, Coconut rum with crushed ice, or Drambuie and ice.

Those are the drinks that are on hand when I choose to imbibe.

Double espressos and iced coffees are pretty damn good too!

A good dark rum with a "splash" of water..

Jack daniels with a hint of coke or boddington, New Castle Brown,,,,,,oooohhh baby.

eleltea: you got me there! Most everything sweet I've had with a cigar has been a bad combination. Rookie mistake.

Threadus-interruptus:

Uh, ya know...I musta been lookin' at Mean's shiney objects when I posted earlier on this thread...

I NEVER SAW THE THREAD TITLE CORRECTLY, ONLY THE FIRST POST OF "What goes best with a good cigar?"...HONESTLY!

I about fell off the chair when I reread this one today!

What I MEANT was, my husband goes best with a good cigar!!! Not that he is the best DRINK...

I didn't mean to imply that here...just wanted to clarify that...

Now, back to your regularly scheduled thread!

Although I have to agree with Mr. Mean....I also enjoy a few pints of Guinness or some Port wine.

Mayorga Coffee with cream
W.L. Weller Special Reserve Sour Mash on the Rocks...

Any well made Ale. Lately it's been one by Anchor Steam out of CA. Smooth and rich.

Irish coffee...

Irish Coffee is good, Jack Daniels, Makers Mark and a good Vodka martini (no vermouth) are also great to mix with a cigar depending on the type of cigar!!!!

Naked girls go with anything!

I just don't spit.

Usually drink Scotch(Oban or Glenrothes) and a good Cab

oh!
and a Hot Tub.

I know it's a little late at night, but I'm thinking a splash of Pinot Noir would go very nicely with the last three inches of this Perdomo I've got burning ... thanks for making me think about it ...

Hello friends,

Question: I really enjoy a dark stout brew (like Guinness) with a cigar, Port is my favorite so far. My dilemma (sp?) is that I’d really like to try other alcoholic drinks with my cigars, but in my younger days in the Army, I drank a lot of cheap hard alcohol straight (got sick one too many times). Ever since then, I’ve had difficulty bringing myself to try a drink “straight”. I would like to try drinks that I’ve read so many of you mentioned. I guess what I want to know are any suggestions for someone like me. I’d like to try a fine Whiskey, but I’m not sure if my stomach will handle it. I guess a smooth drink would be best. Any advice would be great.

Oh yeah, Go Lakers!

Here's some suggestions for sipping whiskey to accompany your cigars ... I think any of these should sit well on your stomach.

Scotch: Abelour, MacAllen or Glenfiddich single malts
Irish Whiskey: Bushmills or Jameson single malts
Bourbon: Makers Mark

I have the same prob. the makers mark is a hella good drink.


GIG'em,
