for no decent reason I usually go for a Lonsdale size with the fizzy stuff. Something like a partagas or a ramon allones 898. I think the size suits and isn't too overpowering for the delicate champagne.It aint where ya from, its where ya at! -
i dindt go for a longsdale but went for a partagas went for a serie d no 4 in the end ans it went brillantly with the champgne in all honesty so thanks

I've read that Cuaba Salomones go well with champagne.--------------------------------------------------

i love the cuaba salamones, but not sure i agree with pairing it up with champagne!!! i think it's a little to rustic to be paired up with champagne....Originally posted by Pipe Dude View Post
i've found that, when having champagne, the tried and tested pairing with churchills works perfectly (especially ryj's, hdms and h upmann sir winston's)!!! cohibas and trinidads go great with the fizzy stuff as well....... make of that what you will (flavour & strength, mild to medium, more grassy/ herby than spicy)!!!
then again, what works for me may not work for you!!! i do think though that partagas, ramone allones etc may be too bold to go with champagne (that's just my opinion)!!!
all the best,
alex

I seem to remember that the RyJ Petit Princess is a classic pairing for Champers.If you want to, you can.
And, if you can, you must!Comment

Call me a Philistine if you wish, but i have always found
champagne to be a lot of fizzy pish, just does not agree with me.
Now a well kept pint of Theakstons bitter, akin to Angel dancing on your tongue.Comment

as it's well known, sir winston churchill smoked romeo y julieta julieta no.2's (which eventually became known as churchills) and drunk pol rogers champagne!!! i've tried this combo and it does work a treat!!!!
i wouldn't smoke a partagas or bolivar with champagne (whisky or cognac please, lol), they're too strong and would overpower the fizzy stuff!!! like i said, something like a cohiba siglo6, trini fundadores, monte especial or a nice aged churchill!!!
xmas day i had a bottle of veuve clicqout with an h upmann sir winston (2008) and i can tell you, it was heaven!!!
all the best,
alex
