It is said that music sooths the savage soul…Are you someone who wants the cigar to be the focus of the moment, or do you prefer to “do something else” while smoking? I find my favorite thing to do while puffin’ and sippin’ is to listen to music. Sometimes I will put on my Pandora lists on shuffle, sometimes I will grab a Pink Floyd Vinyl and listen to the entire album, and once and a while I will explore new music with my cigar.
Today as I light up this 2015, My Father Le Bijou 1922 Torpedo Box Pressed Cigar and pour a scotch old enough to order its own scotch, The Glenlivet 21 Year Archive collection, I have a mix of Arturo Sandoval, Maynard Ferguson, Trombone Shorty, and Wynton Marsalis playing lightly on the 5:1 audio system. I will relax, finish the cigar and whiskey, then gather later tonight with friends and possibly do all over again…
