Hard to find, and my only local source has to order it outside of the normal state ABC's list of available product. My source has been trying for two years to get a supply of the 30 year, but so far, no luck!

No luck in my town. They had the V/X and the Reserve.

Looks like I may have to order.
Last night I paired an 07 CoRo with a 2005 Toad Hollow Cabernet Sauvignon.

Whoa. Just looked at the price of the 21 and 30 year bottles. Yeah, I'm gonna have to go ahead and stick to the Reserve... It tastes just fine to me!

Hmm, what would Bill Clinton answer? Inquiring minds want to know...

If I can locate it, brother, I'll see if I can bump an old thread of mine for you.

When I smoke a cigar it usually gets paired with the following:
Water (if its a relatively new cigar, or light, or I am not in a mood of drinking anything else with it).
Root Beer (if it strong, peppery, your Don Pepin cigars)
Scotch (if I am in a mood of drinking something. If not water or root beer, its scotch)
Beer (I drink this rarely, but sometimes I would like one, and turn to Leffe or La Fin Du Monde).
Drink what you like!

True, very true indeed!

On topic: I love ice water, it never tastes better than with a cigar.

In the past I would usually drink a Merlot. Recently, I've started drinking Licor 43, which is an after dinner liquor. Tastes like anice which is slightly sweet and handles the nicotine well.

I have tried several drinks that are pretty good including port, margarita, beer and tea depending on the cigar. My favorite though without a doubt that seems to go well with every cigar is coffee. Not sure about black coffee but with sugar and some hazelnut cream its an amazing combination for me.

My wife has been drinking Amaretto and Ginger Ale. I tried it last night and it was pretty good.

I drink coffee or water, or both.
With as finicky as my palate is, I've never even tried soda or spirits.

Usually coffee, but I'll drink grape water or diet A&W or diet Dr. Pepper or ice water. Diet Pepsi in a pinch, or whatever is handy, otherwise.
I don't drink much while I'm smoking, so it doesn't much matter. I think coffee pairs best, so I prefer it.
