Pairings between Cigars and Drinks
Pairing Kelt XO Cognac + Perdomo Estate Seleccion Vintage 2002 Maduro Cigar
I've paired Perdomos in the past with cognacs and really enjoyed the experience - in fact it was easily one of my favourite pairs. Generally speaking, I feel that the flavour profiles…
Pairing Highland Park 18 scotch + Padilla Vintage Reserva Cigar
After switching back to the drink, the cigar seemed to make the drink even smoother and much more sweetness comes out in the drink. Also, the finish is a bit shorter and…
Pairing Ezra Zion Eminence + Mount Gay XO Rum
From the start, on the nose, pre-light, the two components go together great. They smell very similar and I know that once I begin those notes will play off each other well.
Pairing Epic Cigars + Lapostolle Cabernet Sauvignon
I enjoyed the wine much more after puffing on the cigar for a few minutes. I found it developed the smoky profile in the drink, and took away some of the bitterness.…
Pairing Bolivar Royal Corona + Grand Marnier Cuvée du Centenaire
If you want to feel “Royal”, or want to impress the elite, I’d say pick up this pair. Pairing cigars and Grand Marnier should be classic in our books. The idea behind…
Pairing Johnnie Walker Gold Scotch + Guillermo Pena Maduro Cigars

Aberlour A'bunadh Scotch and Rocky Patel Vintage 1992
This was a tricky pair to decide if we would recommend it or not. Two pairing members are not really "into" drinks as strong as this while two really are. None of…
Pairing Diplomatico #2 Cigars + Hennessy V.S.O.P Cognac
This pair was a good one, the cigar seemed to take away the long finish of the Hennessy, and it also tamed down the drink a bit, the cigar was smooth and…
Blind Pair
We have a drink that's soaked in history, originated from Islay, smoked with peat moss and rich with flavours of white oak and sweet barley. We're pairing that with a smooth, medium…
Pairing Ezra Zion Tantrum + Vallein Tercinier Vieille Reserve XO Cognac
I fell in love with the Tantrum the first time I tasted it. It's strength and bold flavours meant I needed a drink that could carry that weight. Being a limited production…
Avery Brewing Co.'s The Kaiser + Quesada Oktoberfest
We each poured 3-4 OZ. of The Kaiser and swilled with ease. It brought out the sweetness of the cigar and complimented the cigar like a smile. The oils from the wrapper…
