RyJ Cedors No 3

[Struth]

Had a cr@p week so tomorrow afternoon planning to smoke a RyJ cedros No3 (my cigar journey began with a RyJ No 3from a friend)looking for something to drink with this choices Talisker, Laphroig Quarter cask ,Jim Beam, Port, Olaroso ,Disaronno, Bailey's Hazelnut new,espresso,Guiness,Becks ,Tequila any recommendations and if you can recommend anything else I've got time to pick it up in the morning looking forward to some chill time

Main thing to remember it's what you like and then does it go with the cigar so it compliments it and doesn't overpower it. For me with a RyJ strong spirits like whisky overpower its mild and delicate flavours. I like to hold my man badge high and sip a baileys but that's just me lol. I find it brings out the chocolate and creamy notes.

i've smoked a few of the ryj cedros in my time and always enjoyed a light tasting gin (& tonic) such as cork or gordons with it.

The Cedros are not exactly a powerful line. Try a ginger beer with it. No I'm not being snide, try it. *Smile*

Also, you can't discount a humble glass of Coke (to bring out the sweetness), and let's not forget the classics. . .

A good (builders strength) cup of tea!



Experiment away - and enjoy.
Tally ho!

More good advice methinks!

Try a Pimms and lemonade ...i'm serious.

if it was a hot summer day id say grab a ice cold becks and into the garden, as it not a nice cup of tea

2005 RyJ Cedros #3 was the first full box of cc's I purchased. Still have a few left and they're maturing very nicely.

This is a brilliant suggestion. Thank you.

Sorry to hear things haven't been going well, I'm sure the RyJ will cheer you up tomorrow . I myself pair it with a sweet cider and or even something fruity such as a kopparberg (not for the purists I know).

[EugeneSax]

Definitely something sweetish & not over-powering, such as a desert wine. My very favourite with Cedros (& other similarly-sized Romeos) is a "dry" Madeira - Sercial or whatever (NOT Malmsey). Waitrose do a wonderful selection of 10-15 yr olds from Henriques & Henriques - absolute nectar.

..or as has been mentioned, you could do far, far worse than a good cup of tea. If off the electric soup, I also enjoy lime cordial with or without a dash of bitters.

Had a Baileys with it which was nice but kinda dried the mouth up switched to Talisker which was as advised a bit overpowering so stopped drinking and enjoyed the cigar Then had a couple more Talisker

How you doing mate, glad you enjoyed it.

Personally im not a fan of Talisker, I thinks its a bit too sweet. If Im having a smoke its got to be jura, bunahabhain, lafroig or maybe an aberlour but thats not too say that Dissorono and Coke is a bad choice either, or if your off the sauce, Dr. Pepper, tastes the bloody same as the Dissorono anyway :P
