Sticks-n-Stonez Cigar & Spirits Show

Listen on:

Sticks-n-Stonez is dedicated to the pairing of premium cigars and fine spirits. I have a broad palate and do not focus solely on just scotch or whiskey in general. You will find my pairings interesting as I will pair with whiskey, run, tequila, wine, and of course cognac and brandy.

So what does Sticks-n-Stonez mean? Glad you asked! Cigars are commonly referred to as sticks. Many liquors, namely whiskey (or whisky for those across the pond) are chilled with square stones made of granite or metal. This cools the drink but does not water it down. I keep mine in the freezer so they are very cold when they go in the glass. So, stick, and stones! There, you have learned something already.

That is my goal! Not only to bring my love of cigars and spirits to the world but give everyone an opportunity to learn something they didn’t know. Even if you don’t drink or don’t smoke you still learned something.

I will stick mainly to cigars and spirits but don’t be surprised if I delve into other areas from time to time as well. That might include the economy, politics, world events, jokes. Please take everything with the light-hearted educational tone it is intended in.

CHEERS!

Season 2 Episode 20 Padron 1964 Anniversary Ed Paired With Eagle Bourbon Sticks-n-Stonez Cigar & Spirits Show

First I want to apologize, I refer to the stick as the 64th Anniversary edition when it is the 1964 Anniversary. Chalk it up to doing this solo with no staff to watch me. But this matchup was an excellent one both earning 94 point ratings from me. You should definitely try these two together and I am sure either one would match very well with other sticks or spirits. I hope you enjoy it, CHEERS! #sticksnstonez

I have been enjoying cigars since deploying to Baghdad in 2004 with the US Air Force. My love of spirits goes back much further. I have more than a decade of experience honing my craft of pairing the two together. I spent 21 years in the military. I also hold a degree in Accounting and have my Jurist Doctorate and work in emergency management for the federal government. Yes, I am diverse.
