rickmccarey Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I'm usually water/sparkling water or coffee while I smoke throughout the week. On weekends usually a glass of bourbon. Beer the odd time but I haven't found it pairs well for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan67 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 My neighbours didn't realize I drank until they saw me sober one day.. Seriously though, north of 15/week and generally have a drink with a cigar. When it's still light out, it's a good beer. After dark, it's Scotch, Tequila or rum neat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fokker4me Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I'm 5-7 bourbon/scotch a week in the summer and 3-4 in the off seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiminBC Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I at that stage of my life where trying to be healthy is somehow not good for me. Having said that I am not currently drinking for caloric reasons. Even before I decide not to drink until I lost some weight I rarely smoked cigars with anything other than water. A few bad pairing convinced me to enjoy the cigar alone with just a little tap water as our tap water rocks. I cannot say I miss alcohol much but many of my friends do not drink much.

JohnS Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I've tried various drinks with a cigar but found that, for me, it wasn't easy to pair my drinks with my cigars. I pretty much will always have a black coffee with water though. I find I enjoy my drinks on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Cholmondley Warner Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Sadly my drinking rate has increased, so many good spiced rums around. I need to have a nice dark spirit to go with a cigar. Sometimes a good rum will inspire an impromptu cigar smoke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free85 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Single malt scotch (or blended when the chips are down) for me. I'm in the 5 -7 crew and it seems I am not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I enjoy fine drinks, but I find that I'm the type of drinker that savours his drinks in small quantities. I went out to a 50th Birthday party last night and the host kept insisting on purchasing drinks for his guests. Since he such a nice guy who was I not to oblige? So I started with a simple Jack Daniels and Coke, followed by another. We went later to see a band where this was followed up by two Johnnie Walker Blacks and Coke. I couldn't do any more though!

JerseyG Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I usually have beer when it's warmer, red wine when it's cooler. Scotch every now and then. Recently I enjoyed having coffee with a smoke. Much more coffee in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more coffee in the future. Certain cigars have 'coffee-like' flavours that compliment a good coffee. Other cigars compliments fine alcohol. It's fun to try and experiment what matches.

free85 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Consumables are amazing that way... For me the experiment is part of the enjoyment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoCigarSmoker Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Are we allowed to answer this drunk? Sorry....but I'm happy with my current rate of consumption hahaha. Cheers, Seth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sengjc Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I have a nip of dark spirit or a can/bottle of beer almost daily with a cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassius Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Altough I love wine and had some great experiences with cigars, I understand it is not the best match. I usually have a brown spirit (rhum, whisky or cognac). But I think my favorite drink with a cigar is still coffee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatchNRelease Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 coffee with a cigar is my #2 favorite beverage. It's tough to go against a glass of rum or whiskey with a good stick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napbo00 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I mainly have some cognac or a jack and coke, just getting into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgould55 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I almost always have beer or whiskey when I smoke, unless it's in the morning (and even then I sometimes do). Occasionally I'll drink tea or seltzer water - the latter when I'm really trying to get a feel for the taste of a cigar. I drink almost every night, anywhere from three to five beers or a couple glasses of whiskey. I probably drink too much and should cut down, but it's not causing any problems (yet), so I'm coasting.

teamrandr Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Yes I almost always have a drink or 5 when I smoke. I find I enjoy the cigar better when under the influemce of alcohol. Otherwise when I dont drink I feel like Im in a rush to finish the cigar. I have one cigar a week and 2-5 drinks. Im.happy but I may drink less and try smoking more without alcohol.
