Stanislaw Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Any of you guys recommend a good tequila to accompany a good cigar? I'm a big fan of reposado and have had Corzo gifted to me recently so I'm going to give it a whirl and let you know how it goes.... Anybody else recommend some good tequilas?
CanuckSARTech Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 I really like Patron stuff, and Cabo Wabo too.
Lotusguy Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Herradura Anejo is not bad for sipping. I still prefer rum or single malt, though.
stargazer14 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Spent a week in the desert of Baja with a dozen people, smoking cigars and drinking every tequila we could find. Hands down winner everyone went back to, day after day, was Cazadores. Look for the elk.
Stanislaw Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 I totally agree with you LotusGuy, I'm definitely a whiskey/bourbon man, but I once smoked a Cohiba esplendido while drinking margaritas in a bar at a train station somewhere in Germany and I remember that was a good night.... I'm currently debating which cigar in my humidor will be the test subject to find out if tequila can hold its own... Stargazer14, thanks for that! Sounds like my kind of taste test, heheheh....
canadianbeaver Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Matthew just walked in from Calgary with this gift for me. I had to get ready for Passover while he was skiing...
buster Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I know the taste and quality doesn't always transfer in the same brand from anejo to reposado, and vice versa, but I've been trying lots of different ones lately and my favorites are the El Mayor and Riazul anejos. Haven't tried their reposados. Rick
Hypersomniac Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Can't say I have ever paired it with a cigar, but I am a big fan of El Tesoro de Don Filipe.
mk05 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Tequila and cigar huh? That sounds fun. I like Don Julio and the WaboOooOOoo
ptrthgr8 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Tequila isn't my first choice for pairing with a cigar, but I always go with Patron when the mood strikes. Patron Silver for mixing (best Margarita ever!) and Patron Anejo for drinking straight. Cabo is great, too, but I've only had Cabo as shots. Cheers, Greg Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
darkleeroy Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Herradura Anejo is ok with a cigar. Jose Cuervo Margaritas are awesome on those warm days.
