Cigar Blend Series Part 4 Old Elk Cigar Cut Island Blend Whiskey and the Tropical Highball 2026E005

Описание: Welcome back to Ask Allen About Low Carb Cocktails

Today we are continuing the series on Cigar Blend Whiskeys. Although these are really supposed to be drunk on their own and not in a cocktail, this is a cocktail channel so I am trying some simple cocktails that hopefully will be good with these. Although this should be enjoyed with a cigar, I don’t smoke so I won’t review them with cigars.

The next that I will be reviewing is the Old Elk Cigar Cut Island Blend Whiskey. I have heard this is a good one and it took me a while to find it at a reasonable price, so I hope this it as good as I expect.
