Great Cigars!

Do you have a favorite cigar that you like to sit down and relax with at the end of the day. Maybe have it with your favorite drink.

I never smoked my life and was recently introduced to having an occasional premium cigar with a single malt scotch. Smoke one maybe once a week so I don't think it will hurt me much at my age.

Dalmore Cigar Malt is my favorite scotch and I like many cigars, Ashtons when I can afford them, Macanados, Drew Estate Clean Robustos, Romeo & Julletts, 5 Vegas and several others.

    Why, yes, as a matter of fact, I do. Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente Maduro (as referenced in the December 2005 Cigar Aficionado). Of course, it would be nice to be able to get a Montecristo or H. Uppman again, but I'm afraid it won't happen in my lifetime.

    The Arturo Fuente "Hemmingway" is a nice smoke also. A bit expensive for my pocket. Bought one of the Makers Mark Cigars, in a glass tube, infused with Makers Mark Bourbon and that was a nice smoke. Again only for special occasions at $10+ per cigar or for a gift.

    My favorite cigars are Sancho Panza with the dark wrapper.

    These I have never tried with the dark (madura wrapper). Are they a strong or medium cigar?

    Anybody ever try the Iguanas? I mean the green ones. I'm the kind who likes to know what I'm getting before I spend the $. And those seem to be a lot of $$.

    And for that we can all be grateful. The Good Lord does provide his blessings, doesn't He. Who says there is not a righteous God.

    I've had a few good ones here and there but usually don't break the bank with a decent Cohiba now and then.

    Tabantillas...either natural wrapper or maduro. Nice spicy taste and rather inexpensive for a nice hand rolled cigar.

    A friend gave me a couple of Naturals by Drew Estates this weekend. They are called "clean robustos" and they have a great taste, very unusual. Check them out if you get a chance.

    The post about the scotch called "Glenmorangie" is interesting because Smoke magazine named it one of the best scotches to have with a cigar. I never heard of it but will try to find a bottle on my next trip to the State Controled Liqure Store.

    The dark Sancho Panza is a medium to mild.

    Sig232,

    The only problem with the Glenmorangie is that it is really good, and really expensive!

    The Cigar Malt that I buy is about $35 per fifth. Its made by Dalimore. My wife and I only drink it on special occasions. We drink Famous Grouse on a more regular basis.

    What is the cost of the "Glenmorangie"?

    The last bottle I bought was actually a 18 year (not 15 as I posted earlier, sorry) and I want to say it was $125 - $150. I can't remember for sure. Best single malt that I have ever had. I would also recommend a couple of others: Cragganmore, Macallan, Balvenie, or Oban. Of all of these the Glenmorangie is my favorite.
