I agree with Kuzi in that if you are just smoking a cigar for taste sake then most of the time booze will take away from the taste of the cigar with a few exceptions. But if you are smoking a cigar for the experience then I say drink what ya like and enjoy it. No right or wrong answer there. Oddly enough I like Pepsi Max or Coke Zero with stronger sticks and coffee with cream for milder sticks.
I agree with most here, it maybe depends on what you're smoking the cigar for. In the summer time, I love an iced coffee with a Tabak Especial Cafe con Leche or Java Mint infused cigar in the morning or afternoon. I've decided that Sam Adams goes great with most cigars. Something about the flavor of the beer brings out flavors in the cigar for me that I like. I think Corona is good as well, it's mellow enough that it doesn't 'interfere' or impact the cigar for me. Whiskey, I don't notice a better or worse scenario there either, except with the Maple Smoked Knobb Creek, which again, I think enhances the cigar. I did once have a hot coffee with cream and sugar and thought it was terrible with the cigar.
