The better the single malt, the more the reason to NOT have it with a cigar.
I'd suggest Courvoisier cognac. Make sure you warm the glasses first:
But if you must have whiskey, Laphroaig is nice an peaty.
My favorite cigars are Rocky Patel Edge Lite torpedos. They're full flavored but, not too strong. I like the torpedo shape because I can cut the end just how I like it.
I also like the Macanudo Hampton Courts.
Enjoy!
Hennessy XO is my go to libation of choice with a cigar.
Now I oooooolove a single malt !!!!
Woodford Reserve or Glenfidich 15 year is a good single malt, not too bad on the wallet and fantastic taste!
Johnnie Walker Blue.
Macallen! Do not be swayed. Its an easy drinker, very smooth, and is multipurpose.
Brandy is all good. I won't say anything bad if its the right one.
But man......I keep a bottle or two of the stuff at all times in the bar, for when the right guest comes over.
I was drinking a good single malt at a Bnai Brith Charity cocktail party tickets to the party were$500.00 paid for by the company I work for. Drinks were free I kind a made pig of myself at the scotch bar. As I recall the scotch was called TSoro very very good scotch.
thats like asking what cheese to eat with wine
we need more information! what KIND of cigars do you smoke? cornerstore cheapies? Cuban hand rolled? big fat spicey cigars? small narrow sweet cigars?
Whiskey can range from smokey and peppery to mild and citrus tasting.
I prefer a 6x52 with Glenfiddich on the rocks with a splash of cold water. if your sucking on 7x49's you might need more flavor in your whiskey (ahem... scotch) to keep up with all the spice of the cigar.
if you prefer small, sweet cigars then you might want a nice whiskey blend ... say Forty Creek or Weisers Deluxe with water to allow the sweetness of the cigar to not get drowned out.
Someone else said Macallen, its a great scotch but I'd stay away from the single malt's until you get a taste for it, they are delicious but have A LOT of flavours and might be a bit too much at first.
I dunno....... I'm just a putz anyway
oh one more thing........... DO NOT put coca-cola on the table!!!!!!!!!!!!
lovin this thread (puff puff blowwww)
I can't tell you what goes with a cigar, but I can tell you that Macallan 18yr is perhaps one of the most delightful liquids to ever touch my palate.
Exquisite.
Expensive $$$$$$$
