Pairing Apple Cider with a Cigar

10-26-2008, 08:37 AM

I don't know about you, but I'm an apple cider fiend. Not the pasturized homoginized crap, I'm talking about the stuff that will turn to hard cider if you don't drink it quick enough.

So as I search for some of the good stuff in my new location, I'm hoping for some suggestions on what to smoke as I consume mass quantities of cider.

Thanks in advanced.

As for Cigars I can tell you well pretty much anything I smoke I usually do so while drinking a WoodChuck Hard Apple cider ...some tasty stuff there.

Another great choice with a cigar is the mexican apple soda, real cane sugar, a little sparkle. You can find it at many large grocery stores in the ethnic or Hispanic section, and of course at your local mercado.

Heck yea, there's a few mexican stores that have a little grill that stock this. Fissure and I can on occasion be seen smoking and drinking these in my garage calling kidrock asking why he's not with us.

did the spices of the cider play on the spices of the opus?

Wow. I never gave thought to this pairing. Sounds interesting. I'll certainly have to give it a try now.

I have some 2006 NC hoyo's I just picked up, will be trying one of these after I pick up some cider today.

Let your cider harden then freeze it (preferably outside). The alcohol will not freeze and you can pour off what is sometimes called applejack. Delicious.
