Something too strong wont mesh well with the sweetness, but Cohiba is still strong enough to have significant tasting notes to rise above the sweetness.. Granted, This is all purely my opinion
It was finally warm enough to enjoy a full cigar outside without me freezing my arse off, so I figured I would bust out the amaretto after dinner and paired it with a Graycliff Chateau Gran Cru. I actually really liked the pairing...the amaretto sweetness kind of added another level to the complexity becuase my taste buds were enhanced to the sweetness which I found really complemented the spice of the Graycliff.
I still have another Cohiba sitting in my humi, so it think I'll be trying that one with some amaretto soon given the great stretch of weather we've had lately up here in New England.
