My Quest for my "Perfect Morning Coffee Cigar"

[lordlister]

Montecristo Especiale #2 gets my vote for the perfect morning smoke

 

[Bambam1723]

Coffee w/cream....Romeo y Julieta Belicosos (Cuban)

Coffee black....Tatuaje Black Petite Corona (Nicaragua)

Coffee iced (double espresso w/cold froth).... Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story (Dominican Republic)

Espresso....Partagas Short (Cuban)

Very comprehensive! Thank you!

For me, I like to be able to taste both the cigar and the coffee.... I'm not worried about my coffee being overpowering since I brew lighter roasted single origins that are typically pretty bright a fruit forward.

If I smoke a cigar that is too stout, I'll lose the coffee nuances. Without coffee all best are off, but with coffee I'll typically go with a milder/creamier profile to be complimentary.

PLPC back in the day were it until prices went nuts.

Davidoff Aniversario - spendy but great
Zino Platinum Scepter

More realistically:
Rojas Street Tacos Carnitas
Rojas Quiet Morning - just had a couple, mild but with a little backbone
Roma Intemperance EC
Charter Oak
Warped - I think a lot of them would do the trick
EPC New Wave Conn


I'm sure I'll think of more, but this is a start...

A forgotten gem to add to your list both in this size, and the Nesticos. The larger vitolas are exceptional as well.

Fantastic with coffee in the am!

I love this cigar and have it in 3 sizes, including the Nesticos. I have never seen that size though, and it does look like it would be the perfect size for a morning coffee! Thanks for the tip!

Try a Davi Gran Cru and let us know.

I'll post another suggestion after ya give it a whirl.

I would love to explore the Davidoff line more in depth, as the smaller Cigars I have tried of theirs are fantastic.

This morning, I gave the Montecristo White Series Robusto another chance. It is just too mild to hold up to bourbon, which was the first pairing with this cigar a couple weeks back. I really enjoyed it with my morning coffee, though.

I got this at a golf event last month... Very enjoyable during myoring round this week.
I'd dare say, I'd try it again to be sure it wasn't just the day.

Excellent choice, I agree..!!

This morning I tried the second vitola I purchased of the My Father Fonseca, which was the Cosacos size. I would characterize it as a Petit Corona, although it is just a touch longer than a traditional one at 5 3/8 x 42. The cigar is a perfect size for my morning coffee cigar. I apologize for the photo, as I’d already removed the band and sleeve on the cigar, which gives it a wonderful look. The cigars also come in a beautiful tin, which I really like.

Overall, I really enjoyed this cigar, and as I mentioned, it is the perfect size. There’s nothing overly complex about it, but it was just a nice, mild and smooth cigar with my morning coffee, and I loved the size of it. It lasted just over an hour, which was nice. I would buy some more of these to keep on hand for these nice cool mornings on the patio.

Fabrica 5 Sovereign Suns are pretty darned good with coffee
