Talking Am I in heaven?

Did I find a cocktail discussion forum inside a cigar webpage? That's the next best thing to a cigar bar!

Greetings! I joined CigarWeekly awhile back, but kinda got lost in the shuffle. I live in the New Orleans area where I enjoy food, drink and smoke. My favorite cigars are Oliva, RP, RyJ, Zino, Devil's Weed and the list could go on. I choose my drinks about like a choose my cigars. I was in my usual bar the other night and they were joking how it takes a while for me to choose a drink and I never drink the same thing. I explained to them that you don't eat the same dish in a 5 course meal.

For those of you that like a variety of drinks, you might be interested in an upcoming (July)annual festival/conference in New Orleans called Tales of the Cocktail. (http://www.talesofthecocktail.com) It's a week long festival of cocktail parties, seminars, demonstrations, tours, free tasting rooms (2 rooms, every 2 hours, all day long, all week), etc. I go every year, but this year will be very limited. My wife is expecting our first child (a girl) a few weeks after. I hopefully will be able to spend one day at Tales. But, next year, we'll be in full force, thanks to Granny Babysitting Service. Unfortunately, the whole venue is in a non-smoking hotel. But most local bars are very smoker friendly. In the past, I've invited other attendees to join me for cigars and cocktails.

We've always had a blast. If anybody has an interest in going, I can give recommendations on where to stay and how to have the most fun.

Bye, for now. Slainte!
Steve
