Drink pairing with Ave Maria Reconquista

Since the post subject is so vague, my question is this: What drink do you feel would pair best with this cigar? I usually do coffee or rum and coke. But I saw the original Ave Maria in the bourbon pairing article and now I'm thinking something different might be a better option...Thoughts?

    4 Roses Single Barrel bourbon. This bourbon is not a "heavy" whiskey, and I really enjoy it with this cigar. They compliment each other, but neither overpowers the other. But please don't put this bourbon in coke or anything else except maybe a little water over ice.

    Samuel Adams seasonal goes pretty good if you are looking for a beer.

    I'm a Mountain Dew guy myself. It goes with any cigar. I also like a good scotch or chi tea.

    I've found that I like ginger ale with cigars...especially the fuller flavored ones

    that actually sounds interesting. I might try that. Not necessarily with this cigar but maybe with my next one...

    ive also found dr pepper to be a good drink with some of the stronger smokes even better mixed with a little gentleman jack(or alot depending on the day ive had)..

    To be fair though, Maker's Mark goes with anything :-) LOVE THAT STUFF!
