rocky patel vintage 99 if you don't mind spending the extra few bucks

Dr. Pepper trust me, or a nicely aged port or esspresso

I agree; drinks are secondary, but the other day there was a wine tasting at the humidor.

I had a $35 bottle of Bordeaux with a Zino Platinum Double Grande and it was BLISS!

The red wines were jumping with a good cigar. That was my first $34 cigar, and my last; but it was damn good.

after having a meal, I enjoy my smoke with a Glass of Grand Marnier. I feel the sweetness enhances the flavor of the cigar.

very interesting thread - very unexpected answers. now it's got me curious as to what you folks are tasting - haha... coffee & chocolate milk sound quite good (single malt, preferably 18yrs or older, is a given...)

Laugh all you want but a nice cigar and an Oreo cookie shake from jack in the B is epic! Try it if you don't believe me!

A good espresso or a good red = WIN!

My favourite drink, which i pair with a cigar, is the Licor43 mixed with cold milk and a bit of ice. But it depends on the cigar, b/c if its too strong, the 43 won't taste good anymore. That's why i mostly smoke mild cigars.
