Outside of a sour my bourbon experience is limited . Sounds good though

The Willett?s is excellent, all are good and offer something different to the usual bourbons.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys.

Definitely agree with [MENTION=13442870]pootana[/MENTION] that whisky/ey is subjective. I personally find the Aberlour 10 drinkable but very bitter (people always seem to buy it for me as well!). My taste leans towards almost anything Glenmorangie (didn't like the Lasanta or Nectar D'Or too much) and the Aberlour Abunad'h and Tamdhu Batch Strength take some beating; you can always add water to these if the mood so takes you. I find the 'Cigar Malts' a bit gimmicky on the whole. Must admit that I'm enjoying rum more than whisky these days (which is a surprise to me!)

Aberlour 10 would be my suggestion.

Another whisky I think that will go nicely with a cigar is bain cape mountain....I've not paired it yet...but can see a cigar will complement the whisky....it's a very smooth whisky, notes of vanilla and cinnamon

Will have to try it once the cool weather pass.

Whiskey drinking is subjective go to a good pub that has a large selection and sample you will find what you like .

As for non peaty favouring cigars ... bull ..

I love Islay malts and like cigars they work lol

My fav lowland malt is ailsa bay ... outstanding dram ... distillery is local to me

One thats a nice match with cigars I found was the balvenie Carribbean cask. Along with the dalmore15. For whisky drinking I normally just use a normal glencairn glass these days www.themysterywhisky.co.uk
