igar is easier than you would think. Cigars are put in to three main categories: Mild, Medium and Full bodied. You can easily do the same with whisky.The simple but important rule is that you find a pair which doesn't try to over power each other. If you pour dram of your best 15yo oak cask MacAllan and pair it with Montecristo Nro 2, the poor whisky has no chance. Your first drag of the Cigar will kill and eliminate everything of the whisky.
But if you choose something similar in power. Like Hoyo de Monterey Corona you'll be surprised how well they blend together. Both have Chocolate, nuts and woodines as part of main characteristics. The flavor will blend in your mouth to something that dreams are made of.
Recommended pairings:
MILD to MEDIUM -----------MacAllan 10yo - Hoyo de Monterey (Corona)
MEDIUM ---------------------Glenfiddich 18yo - Romeo & Julieta (Pelicosos)
MEDIUM to FULL -----------Talisker 10yo - Montecristo Nro 2
FULL BODY ------------------Lagavulin 16yo - Partagas serie D nro 4
