This would distinguish itself from the "What did you smoke today" thread by identifying a quality pairing. Might even help if you mention what you liked about it:

For example, I had a Russell's Reserve 6 yr. Rye with a Padron '26 #9 Maddy. I was pleasantly surprised.
The Padron probably had a couple of years on it, as it was a bit milder in taste than I remember other anniversary Padron maduros. To tell the truth, I was worried the cigar would overpower the drink; however, they complimented each other well. The moderate mellowness of each worked very well with each other. Throw in perfect construction, a full bottle of the rye, and a J/Q of hearts, and and we have a nice evening.
Sounds like one hell of a good idea
