What you eat will dictate what you smoke or vice versa. If you leave the house carrying a certain blend of cigar(s), what you have in your pocket will call for a specific menu.
A repast of fish and vegetables will call for a light dry wine and a mild smoke. A Don Diego, a Romeo Y Julieta, a Davidoff 1000 (thousand) series or a Dunhill.
Stepping up to fowl of any sort will work well with a light red wine and a cigar with a fuller body. A Montecristo White, a Miami made Cuervo Rojo from our humidor in Boca Raton, FL.
And if you are served a steak, enjoying an aged scotch, you should enjoy a full bodied blend. A Montecristo Classic, a Partagas or Cohiba. Or a Kuba-Kuba from Drew Estates.
Any of the above choices will fit the three basic menus above, with personal variations. So what to do after the holiday meals? Usually the best idea would be to bring a medium smoke if you can smoke at the dinner party. With an aroma that would be pleasurable for the guests to experience.
The best way to enjoy a good smoke here in Florida is to smoke outside. Drawing a fire pit to chase away the cold, having mulled wines and ciders. Hot buttered Rum or spiced Eggnog.
Enjoy!
