Drinking habits

[champ]

My favourite drink with a cigar is a glass of wine.I have been drinking whites for a long time now and its mostly Chardonnay.Seems to go well bearing in mind that i am a noob. .

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.

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.

I'm 5-7 bourbon/scotch a week in the summer and 3-4 in the off seasons.

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.

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.

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!

I hear that! Thinking Zaya or maybe el dorado 15 tonight.

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.

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!

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.

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]

Consumables are amazing that way... For me the experiment is part of the enjoyment.

[CoCigarSmoker]

Are we allowed to answer this drunk? Sorry....but I'm happy with my current rate of consumption hahaha.

Cheers,

I have a nip of dark spirit or a can/bottle of beer almost daily with a cigar.

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.

[CatchNRelease]

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

[napbo00]

I mainly have some cognac or a jack and coke, just getting into it

[tgould55]

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]

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.
