Guide: How to pair whiskey and cigars like a PRO | Learn to choose the best bourbon for your cigar.

With so many options to choose from, picking a whiskey to drink and a cigar to smoke can be tough decisions - especially if your budget is limited. Thankfully, American Whiskey Magazine content editor Maggie Kimberl has a tried and tested methodology she's been teaching for over a decade that will help you learn how to pair cigars and whiskey like a PRO! Instead of telling you which whiskies she thinks will work well with particular cigars, Maggie's approach will teach you the skills you need to make the decision for yourself, to suit your taste and budget.

Maggie met up with Jodie Fileatreau, artisanal distiller at the Evan Williams Bourbon Experience, and Christopher Coates, editor-at-large of Whisky Magazine, in the cigar lounge at the Louisville Thoroughbred Society, one of the bourbon capital's best places to enjoy whiskies and cigars.
In this guide, the trio pair a non-Cuban Partagas Petit Robusto with three whiskies from Heaven Hill: Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey, Larcency Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, and Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
