Unusual Accompaniments

[thehappypiper]

I discovered last week that green tea works well with Latakia and tonight that mature cheddar cheese is a great food to nibble with a Va/Per. And of course we all know what to drink with Kentucky; Jim Beam Black Label.

Any other combos lurking out there?

I just can't bring myself to eat while I smoke. The idea of cheddar cheese in my mouth while smoking, sort of makes me sick. But, I do like a white grape juice with escudo. The tart really harmonizes well between the two in flavor.

I like Mt. Dew with a strong straight Virginia or Haddo's Delight, and coffee with most of the other VaPers.

A bowl of 3 Nuns after a grilled steak works for me. :wink: While smoking, some Arizona iced Green Tea.

Once had an oreo milkshake with a latakia based tobacco, actually wasn't that bad lol!

Black tea (without flavorings like citrus) seems a good pairing with Virginia blends with or without Perique,

to me. But any beverage has to be sipped, or it takes over the taste experience.

White wine with nightcap's rather lovely. Wouldn't have thought it.

I like single malt with my smoke, but if I'm gonna 'nibble' something while puffing, it'll be

the hops in a cold beer.....

For me, it's sweet tea, juice (almost any kind), coffee, hot chocolate, milk, beer, cider, occasionally some whiskey or rum, sometimes wine, but NEVER food! I can't stand the thoughts of smoking while eating, but that's just me. To each his own!

Coffee or bourbon.
My two favorites.

Nothing unusual. What makes a perfect evening is the pipe, the dog at my feet, or with his big, shaggy head in my lap, and a tot of port.

My housemate and I used to make mochas with his Gaggia espresso machine back in the day. We decided that instead of paying 4 dollars for a Starbucks coffee, we'd just make our own. I can't see drinking anything other than water or coffee while smoking a pipe.
