My perfect drink for a cigar…Bourbon!

I know that every cigar guy has their favorite drink to compliment their smokes. A big majority of people prefer scotch on the rocks. I have always been more of a bourbon/whiskey guy. I find that it goes great with any of the strong full-bodied cigars I light up.cocktails and cigars

On the rocks or mixed? That seems to be the other big question in the cigar world…most aficionados always lean toward no mixers. I typically buy better bourbons but still mix them with diet coke. I know that kills a lot of the hardcore guys out there..but that’s how I like it. Thats was until now…paddleford creek bourbon

I recently found a very reasonably priced small batch bourbon at Total Wine in Orlando. It’s called “Paddleford Creek“. I attached the link to Total Wine’s website. The typical price is around $24, but it is only $19 there! The biggest reason I am highlighting this bourbon is because it is super smooth (Almost too smooth and light), and goes perfect on the rocks. I would grab a bottle if you can. It’s a small commitment.

In conclusion… JK highly recommends!  I wouldn’t say its the best bourbon I’ve had, but it’s great for someone tryng to transition away from mixing their high-end liquor. I’ll make some future posts on my top bourbons soon.
