A. Fuente Anejo #49. The are the churchill sizes that had the wrapper age 6-8 months in Cognac casks. A truly upscale cigar!!! Had mine with a Russian Gun Imperial Stout and a Wild Turkey Rare Breed. Paired better with the beer.

I enjoyed a Montecristo No. 2 with a generous dram of Macallan 18 last night.

Tonight a nice Rocky Patel Old World Reserve Toro with water. I tried to pair it with Wild Turkey Rare Breed but the flavours really clashed. Went much better with water...

Illusione MK with a Whyte & Mackay 13yr. Went pretty well together!

Tonight an A. Fuente Hemmingway Short Story. Really nice with some coffee...

A Tatuatje Verocu No 9 with Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

There is nothing like this cigar from the cuban side. Dark earthy flavours. I've heard that it has a dark cherry note. I wouldn't describe it that way but I get what that reviewer meant. The stout complementd it perfectly!!!

and conflict ensues! ha ha... just kidding, probably not here.

Nic puros have a very unique flavor, and many argue that it is the perfect rival to Cuban tobacco - not because of the similarities, but because they are both unique. Lot of pepper and earth in the Nicaraguan sticks.

Stouts and porters seem to pair well a lot with strong cigars. I have a few Tats and my initial inclination is to pair it with a highland... seems that highlands tend to work well with peppery sticks... maybe a Talisker too, to see if you can pull out other flavors if the peppers cancel each other...

I see what you mean doggie. Yeah, some may take issue with that statement. I'm only talking though my own experiance of course.

Tonight a Gurkha Titan. Despite the frown on Gurkhas on cigar boards I liked this one a lot. Paired with coffee it did really well!!!

by **orangedogofglory** » 19 Jun 2010, 23:55

finally dug into my BHK 52 box... had one yesterday. incredible! definitely one of the best cigars I've ever had, and maybe the very best. would like it to be half an inch or an inch longer, but that's ok.

by **Frodo** » 20 Jun 2010, 08:50

A Gurkha Beast and some Whyte & MacKay 13yr. Nice pair!!!

by **Frodo** » 25 Jun 2010, 12:55

An Anejo #49 with some coffee and then a Russian Gun Imperial Stout...

by **Frodo** » 01 Jul 2010, 22:40

NC San Cristobal Toro with a Cristoff Nobel. I think I may have to buy more of these sticks...

by **butephoto** » 01 Jul 2010, 22:52

I have some mini Montechristos but have a big one put aside for, hopefully, next weekend.

by **Frodo** » 03 Jul 2010, 08:20

Today an Anejo #49 (Churchill) with a Russian Gun Imperial Stout. Heaven...

by **Frodo** » 09 Jul 2010, 08:04

An Oliva "V" Lancero and an Oliva "G" Maduro Robusto both with a stout. The Lancero was its usual stellar self, but the "G" was suprisingly good. Typical maduro flavours (dark earthy) but soft.

by **Frodo** » 12 Jul 2010, 15:11

An A. Fuente Anejo #46 with Young's Chocolate Stout. Really nice cigar but I won't repeat that pairing...

by **Frodo** » 23 Jul 2010, 05:37

Fuente Anejo #49 (Churchill) with Russian Gun Imperial Stout and some Flor de Cana 21. HEAVEN!!! :!:

by **tonc** » 23 Jul 2010, 14:13

Balmoral Royal Claro Robusto with Aberlour A'bunadh batch 26. Which was nice.

by **Frodo** » 31 Jul 2010, 19:22

Opus X Fuente Fuente with Flor de Cana 21. Really nice pairing...

by **Frodo** » 16 Aug 2010, 07:27

Oliva "G" Diadema and Fuller's London Porter. Nice pairing although the beer overwelmed the stick a little bit.

by **Frodo** » 20 Aug 2010, 05:52

Fuente Anejo 55 with Flor de Cana 21. The larger ring guage Anejos seem to be a bit lighter in body then their small ring-guage siblings.

by **Mr Tattie Heid** » 20 Aug 2010, 14:46

Be careful with those rings, Mr Frodo.
