What do you drink when smoking??

**hex1848** · 12-18-2004, 07:16 AM

I smoke a cigar everyday after work on the commute home. I usually dont get the oppertunity to really enjoy it with my favorite drinks. When I do have some free time I like to go out on my back porch with a good CafeBustelothats made in my little Stove Top Espresso Maker.

You know, recently I have been making it a habit to take a luch break and go to one of my favorite Cigar shops here in town and sit there with a buddy with a smoke and a large cup of coffee. Coffee is becoming a very important neccesity to firing up a stick.

What do you know, I went on a good rum hunt yesterday afternoon smoking my cigar (in the car) whileliquor store hopping.It seems premium rums are getting harder and harder to come buy. I was about to give uphope when I stopped by a place on the far side of town from where I lived and I noticed they had one bottle of the RL Seals. My dad's going to be happy for Noche Buena.<O:P></O:P>

The bottel was really dusty; it looked like it had been sitting there for months if not a year or 2. Of course it was the last one. The nice old lady behind the counter didnt know Bacardi from Black Seal so I couldnt get any information out of her.<O:P></O:P>

So, I'll sit out there under the open garage door, enjoy my coffee and cigar and listen to A.M. talk radio.

Sounds a lot like me. I sit out under the carport next to my
motorcycle, stare out into the dark, listen to some tunes, and smoke
away.

i'm sure this may sound weird, but during the summer, sitting on the porch with a cold glass of cherry kool-aid was damn good

Coffee, but not just any coffee.

My favorite is 4 shots of espresso in a 20 oz cup. After the 4 shots of espresso fill 1/2 of the cup with regular brew coffee and the other half with steamed heavy cream. Flavored with Vienna Chocolate Mint and Pecan. With either a Plasencia or Aspira Toro or really any heavy bodied spicy smoke it is a magical experience. I have a mobile emergency plumbing service. So I just drive around all day drinking custom coffee and smoking cigars. Pretty cool huh.

It depends entirely on my mood and the company I am with. During this year's Hoskins Herf (my birthday party, where I supply drinks and cigars), I even smoked an Opus X, while drinking Miller Lite. Of course, it was about 4 in the a.m. LOL!

I like low-sugar Kool Aid. You make it with 2/3rds cup of sugar rather than the full cup.

beer or soda depending on my mood

**FatSmoker** · 03-05-2012, 08:25 PM

Usually a single malt, beer, or water.

Occasionally all three

**Fumador** · 03-06-2012, 12:04 AM

Ice cold sweet tea

**stnd** · 04-03-2012, 11:25 PM

A good cup of coffee. Or cold beer on a hot day.

My wife's from the US and lived most of her life in the south. She introduced me to sweet tea and I love having a glass of it with a cigar in the summer.

In the winter, I like a nice hot, strong, cup of black coffee

Sambuca Is My Atf

**QuietC** · 02-25-2005, 01:03 AM

after reading few of your guys' posts, i had water with a cigar for the first time. and it did seem to allow the flavor of the cigar to be tasted more. I think i'll be sticking with water now

I drink Hennessy vsop or Johnny Walker Swing...smoking a cigar and drinking liquor is great combination.

**MMAB** · 07-30-2005, 10:26 PM

Water for me. Although of course at a party it's Stolichnaya Oranj or Gentleman Jack. But alcohol seems to ruin the taste of a cigar for me more often than not.

Lately beer has ruined the taste of a cigar for me too. But I recall one night in a bar in Malden, MA, a quaint little neighborhood dive, my buddy and I stopped in for a couple of beers. We lit up RyJ Churchills en Tubos and man that was one of the best tasting Ryj Tubo I have had yet. Can't duplicate it to this date.

My cigar palate has become very finicky over the past few years.

I'll stick with water mostly.
