Would cheese go with cigars?

I also don't really believe in eating while smoking, but to each his own and I just thought the cheese would go with a cigar.......I still might try it one of these days.

Been looking for an article I read several years ago to no avail...

The article talked about some upscale restaurants that offered a "dessert" menu to pair with cigars - specifically port wines, scotch, cordials, and cheeses! They touted the flavor of some stronger cheeses with cigars.

Sorry I can't find it - but I do sometimes enjoy some cheese with a cigar... or maybe peanuts or almonds. To each his own, right?

I have too, just seems like it takes away from the flavor of the smoke,but I don't know maybe some foods intensifies the flavor too.
