    Any cigar smokers?

    Searched and didn't find a cigar topic. Please let me know if I missed it. Happy fourth to all!

    Much less so now than in the past, but I still enjoy one with a neighbor and shooting buddy. He usually supplies the beer and I bring up a couple of cigars as we sit on my porch and enjoy some tunes and conversation.

    For a while I was smoking about 6-8 a week. Now it's more like 1-2, but I do enjoy them. I would pair them with either Diet Coke or Coke Zero depending on the particular cigar. At some point I should write a book on how to pair cigars with diet soda.

    Padron 1964 Exclusivo natural and highland single malt scotch. That's as good as it gets, at least for me.

    You, sir, are a barbarian. I love ya, but it doesn't change the facts.


    ETA:


    I enjoy different sticks but cut my teeth on Fuente 8-5-8's and a variety of cigars by "Pepin" and Padilla among others.

    Every Friday afternoon, if work permitted, I'd hit Calle Ocho in Miami with a Cuban-American detective assigned to the Miami P.D. bomb squad and we'd stop at a variety of factories and tobacconists to see what looked good.

    One of our favorite places was run by the father-in-law of singer Jon Secada. (I have a funny story about that place.)

    I prefer the 1926, but you can't go wrong with a padron!

    Cohiba Cubano.

    Nothing more American than Kentucky spirits and a commie cigar.

    Truth is truth. Sadly I am devoid of barbarian women.

    With the sweater, creamy, chocolaty cigars, I prefer diet coke. With a good leathery cigar, it's Coke Zero time.

    I don't drink alcohol so I have to improvise.

    I've place my own personal embargo against commie cigars, but I have a friend who loves them. I am a Nicaraguan guy myself.

    I'd have pegged you for Swisher Sweets!
