Drink pairing Experiment #2

[dwoodward]

It's like 3 reviews in 1... But I can't help but think that drinking 3 things at once with the same cigar is a little inaccurate. Next time you should stick to the same drink for a whole cigar, do a review, then do the same with the next drink.

Flavors mix, that's my 2 cents.

Interesting idea tho, I like it.

Great idea and great review. that stick looks mighty tasty I always seem to enjoy the cigars more when I am able to drink pop with them. Smoke what you like and drink what you like

I made a point to smoke without drinking for a couple minutes to help clear the previous drink. Then would take a couple drinks of next beverage to cleanse before next puff. I don't think this would be possible with a robusto or other shorter vitola. The one thing I think I screwed up was to have one drink be a control from cigar #1 to #2. Then I could see if flavor profiles change from cigar to cigar. These two cigars did seem a little different; possibly due to heat and humidity during smoking of this one. Both were smoked in Air conditioning, but I can only get it so coll in my mancave.
Thanks for the constructive comments dwood. I have a couple other ideas I may try, and may need a devil's advocate to make sure I thought them out clearly.
