What is the best liquor pairing that you've found to smoke with, that is under $30 per 750ml? At Sam's Club, you can get a 1.75L bottle of E&J for $20. I have found that on the rocks, it goes exceptionally well with rubustos and Connecticut's, as well as with the harsher pipe tobacco. On the slightly more expensive end, Cedar Ridge whiskey or Woodford Reserve on more of a "special occasion" such as hosting.

Cool, thanks for the recommendation. I can count on one hand the number of times I've had Scotch, and it's definitely my least favorite of American/Irish/Scotch whiskey. Irish whiskey is triple distilled and heated over smokeless peat, so I think that's what drew me to it prior to me smoking cigars. I used to only have cheap flagship American whiskey, and they tasted like a dirty chimney by comparison. I guess if you're more steeped in cigars and seek out the better brands, American whiskey is probably better.

Let me know what you think of the brandy and tobacco combo. I may pick up a bottle of jameson for cards tomorrow night.

Brandy and a tequila aged Connecticut pair well. The apple taste is stronger than I expected, but not bad.
