Popped my ....

I love padrons and burn more 3000 maduros than any other cigar. It just delivers exactly what I like. I've found that stouts and porters go great with them. I also like gin martinis and scotch or Irish whiskey, sometimes bourbon. Perhaps I have a problem . I have recently started drinking white wine, but I haven't found it to pair well with cigars at all. Check out some 601 blue labels. If you like the padrons, I'd be shocked if you didn't like those as well.

I've found red wines are the best bet for pairing wine with cigars, whites tend to be too sweet to mix with cigars well, you'd need a milder really sweet smoke to pair well with them IMO. Try something with a Sumatra wrapper, first that comes to mind for me that may pair well is a Tat Cojonu 2012 Sumatra.

Yeah I have no problems with a big cab or zin. I just don't smoke with a dry white. Actually, a moscato isn't bad with a milder smoke, but it is more dessert-like than a regular wine. I normally drink sauvignon blancs and chardonays when I have white, which are not sweet.
