Sticks-n-Stonez

Today is Part 2 of my Season 1 Finale. I present my Top 5 spirits that I paired this year. I tossed in a little of everything and hope you enjoy it. Thank you for a fabulous first season and I am already working on Season 2. CHEERS!

I am presenting the Top 5 cigars I reviewed in season 1 of Sticks-n-Stonez. They were all excellent in their own right. Be sure to stay turned for Part 2 which will be my Top 5 spirits. It has been recorded and is in post production. CHEERS!

If you love Bob Dylan's music you should try his whiskey! This is my best pairing to date. Heaven's Door Decade Series Release No 1 is an excellent whiskey and I am so happy I got to preview it before it was available for sale. It paired wonderfully with the Rocky Patel Sixty which is wonderful in its own right as well. CHEERS!

This was an amazingly excellent pairing and there is some very interesting political commentary in the middle of the episode. CHEERS!

This was and absolutely wonderful pairing. Thank you again to John (aka Andy) at Andy's Flour Power Bistro in Panama City Beach for supplying me with the Cohiba Serie M, it was a great smoke. CHEERS!

This was a delightful pairing that was not overly complex just smooth and elegant. You should definitely try these two together and keep them on your shelf. There is also come commentary on Uvalde and the 2nd Amendment about halfway.

A very wonderful pairing, both were not too complex and neither overwhelmed the other. These were delightful both individually and together. AND, there is some great commentary you shouldn't miss about mid-way. CHEERS!

This is an absolutely wonderful pairing and a must try! But, you will also find buried in the middle of the episode some of my economic predictions for this summer. And, this was recorded on May 2nd, on May 4th as I am uploading this I see come across the wire that one of those predictions is one step closer to coming true. Think mortgage rates, and definitely watch the entire episode of the whole scoop.

With Fuente in the pairing this should have been a home run but not quite to say the least. You will find some amusing political commentary in the middle.

This was a surprisingly good pairing. I was afraid that with the simple profile the stick and the drink offered they would not be good together. They weren't, they were excellent. You should definitely try this pair, CHEERS!

This was not a good pairing. It was a GREAT one! I was very pleasantly surprised at how good the Horse Soldier was, it had a great aroma and palate. The Sweet Jane was, well, sweet, but not infused so it still had the taste of a good cigar just with a lot of sweetness. A must try for both of these, CHEERS!

This was a great pairing. The AF Rosado was excellent. The Knob Creek was equally good but at 100 Proof it overpowered the cigar slightly and probably would have been better paired with a more full-flavored stick. But these two should definitely tried, CHEERS!

A solid pairing that went well together. Widow Jane is an excellent bourbon with a nice hint of sweetness. And really, how could a cigar with a wicked looking Templar Knight on the band not be good? CHEERS!

This turned out to be a surprisingly good pairing. The Padron was no doubt going to be good but I was very surprised by how mellow and smooth the Bushmills was.

An absolutely wonderful pairing. You really need to try these two together! CHEERS!!

The second in my Plasencia series, this one pairs a wonderful Alma del Campo with an equally wonderful 3 Amigos tequila. The match was spot on and I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope you do as well. CHEERS!

Plasencia is a wonderful brand and the Alma del Fuego is a great representative for that brand with its simple yet refined profile. The del Fuego goes magnificently with Highland scotch and Glenmorangie The Original is a very good pairing partner from that region. I hope you enjoy it, CHEERS! #cigar #cigars #cigarpairing #cigarandbourbon #cigarandwhiskey #cigarandscotch #whiskey #scotch #bourbon #cigarlife #bourbonlife #scotchlife #rum #rumlife #cigaraficionado #whiskeypairing #scotchpairing #pairing #wine #port #cognac #brandy #dessertwine #cocktails #botl #chocolate #tiki #drinks #cigarlife #cigaraficionado #singlemalt #winepairing #vodka #sotl #tasting #beer #scotchwhisky #truffle #tequila #cigarsnob #bar #honey #cocktail #cigaroftheday #cocktails #dietcocktails #dietmargs #dietmargarita #margarita #cigarsonice #cigarsandrum #cigarsandbourbon #cigarsnlife #cigarsforwarriors #cigarslover #cigarsclub #cigarsandcoffee #cigarsdaily #cigarsmoker #cigarsociety #cigarsnob #cigarsofinstagram #cigarstagram #luxury #cigarlounge #boutiquecigar

This was a wonderful pairing representing two of my favorites, Rocky Patel and The Dalmore. I hope you enjoy it!

Nothing to describe, just an enjoyable stick in a comfy chair on a fine afternoon.

My love affair with The Dalmore only grows with each each try. This pairing was excellent; the chocolate, the orange marmalade, vanilla, and cinnamon oh my, Cheers!

A very good stick and a great bourbon! If you can get a bottle of Weller it is worth the effort. Cheers!

This was an excellent pairing! There was just the right amount of sweet and spice in both the stick and the spirit. And, they were both smooth and mellow! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did, a must try!

If you are like me and had never tried pairing cigars and tequila you are missing a great experience. Tequila is making its way mainstream and is no longer relegated to just drunk shoots with salt and lime. This was a very good pairing that you should definitely try.

The was a spicy pairing that married well together. If you have never had Rye you should give it a try and Woodford offers a surprisingly subtle rye. And the Serie V Melanio is one of the most talked about cigars available; a very delicious stick that is worth a smoke. Cheers!
