I dont usually plan a pairing. Just whatever Im drinking is what ever I'm smoking with it, usually Dr. Pepper, Coke, or Coffee
I don't limit my smoking. I like the pipe too much and need my nicotine.
Mostly filtered ice water, but also almost anything else i drink, including tea, coffee, lager, bourbon, lemonade, etc. I don't drink much milk except with sweets, and I think it would coat the mouth in a taste dampening way. Tea is excellent, but I avoid it because it may contribute to kidney stones.
Black coffee or water. Anything else doesn't jive for me, ruins the smoke and the smoke ruins the beverage flavors, at least in my mouth.
Only Coffee. I think they compliment each other for the best. Both require sipping and slowing down to be enjoyed fully.
Anything, as long as it's straight whiskey. Scotch, Irish, Canadian, Bourbon, Rye, flavored, or not. Lately I've been really enjoying Bird Dog salted caramel, but since I went through the last bottle I switched to Bird Dog maple, which is also quite good.
Although I'm a whisk(e)y drinker, I don't actually prefer spirits with a pipe. I drink coffee or tea with a pipe. I do not like the confluence of neat spirits with pipe smoke. I find that I end up tasting neither of them very well.
Same, though my choices leave out sugared drinks. Water, coffee, whatever's handy.
Never gets old. Diet Pepsi. But lately, been having Dr. Pepper cream soda. Like this better than Pepsi cream soda.
Almost exclusively coffee for me in the mornings. In the evenings, I'll have maybe a whisky or brandy.
I don’t like carbonated beverages with a pipe. Hot tea, iced tea, coffee, iced coffee & water for me. Coffee in the morning with 1792 or Bracken Flake is a ritual of mine that I will never tire of. Unfortunately I’m running low on Bracken, and it has aged so well!
Black coffee and strong Burley in the morning.
I love Bourbon with strong Dark Fired blends (aged Jack Knife Plug), out of all the spirits-tobacco pairings this is the most harmonious for me.
Rum for Virginia.
Cognac for English blends.
Or just water. I’m still exploring so who knows, maybe chocolate milk and War Horse will blow my mind.
