I've never thought of iced irish coffee. And with the heat down in my neck of the woods, I think this is going to be my next pairing with a smoke when I get a chance
Just had a Punch Punch out on the deck with a fire going in the firepit down on the patio. An old favorite that I really enjoyed
Ed, are you not a teacher or instructor or professor or something along those lines? How on gawd's green earth can you not be a huge fan of coffee? Not even when you were a student?
COTD: Back to the beginning with a Casa Magna Colorado (pikito, I think). Me likey these little guys. To hell with tradition and tough guys smoking 60 gauge baseball bats. I'm gonna smoke my pikitos, cut my lanceros in two (not really), and take my whiskey on the rocks (if I drank the stuff).

I am not very experienced when it comes to cigars but I did enjoy this combination. It was a dessert experience for certain! I would highly suggest pairing an iced Irish coffee with this stick.
Funny you should mention that, my fiancee says I should be a teacher. I'm working on getting a masters in Business now, so I'm still being taught by others. I'm not a fan of coffee now and I wasn't when I was an undergrad either. I'm high-strung and nervous as it is, coffee would just make me even harder to handle. Plus my body is hyper-sensitive to caffeine, I can't hardly handle drinking a Pepsi!
Strong black coffee (a nice dark roasted Sumatran, if I have my choice) and a maduro cigar are one my simple pleasures. I really like this in the morning, but rarely get to experience it. I do it on the occasional Sunday if I know I have the day off. When I'm on vacation though, I try to do it more often.
I must have been confusing you with someone else here in the BL who periodically mentions his students, class, etc. Interesting that you can handle nicotine but not caffeine as I'd put Nic at about 5 on the Vice Meter with Caf near the bottom at 2, looking up everyone else's skirts.
Just starting with cigars but your simple pleasure combo certainly resonates with me -- dark on dark. I'm actually off to the cigar shop soon to pick up some maduros. Not sure what kind yet. Gonna walk in with no ideas, no list, just grab whatever looks dark and dangerous. Also grabbing some beans from Green Beanery in Toronto this afternoon before I go the Blue Jays vs. Detroit Tigers game. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to smoke a stogie at the game.
Sounds like a great day planned. Dunno the what is available to you. A nice dark Padron is hard to beat, IMO. And, yes I doubt you can smoke in Rogers Dome.
Ahh the mysteries of body chemistry...
I love early morning smokes with a good dark coffee too. Sadly it seems like its harder and harder to find places to smoke a cigar and hang out. I feel like a leaper sometimes.
To be honest ed, I kind of want to see you jumping off the walls, I'm going to have to spike your drinks with some 5-hour energy if we ever meet. You remind me of my brother, he is high-strung and super jittery on the go go go 24-7. When we are together I pretty much just egg him on and add fuel to the madness we are a bad pair, he doesn't know how to say no, and I don't know how to stop enabling him to do dumb stuff. lolz
Day three of vacation was a Liga Privada #9. Life is good....
You are a bad, bad man, Boris!
lol I think of it as doing a favor for the masses, its great entertainment all around! I'm sure our B&B brothers would love the vid!
I've never tried one of the famed "moneymakers". I will have to give one a go some day.
Tonight was a Nub Maduro. Started peeling right above the cap. Really ticked me off. Thought I might have to abandon it early, but I managed to fix it good enough to enjoy most of it.
I'll have to make sure to accidentally "smash" your phone when we meet up one day...
lol its ok I carry 2 phones and when I travel i usually have a spare in my suitcase somewhere
Yesterday was a special day. I'm presently unemployed with one [sort of cruddy] job offer on the table. As of yesterday, I received a second [much better] job offer which I'll be accepting. In celebration, I broke out the Liga Privada No. 9 that I received as a generous gift from Boris. It. Was. Awesome. Perfect draw, razor sharp burn line, wonderful flavor profile, and tons of rich, thick, creamy smoke that I wished would never end. Fantastic cigar all around -- now I just have to find out where to get more! Thanks again Boris!
