[QUOTE="s.ireland, post: 221242, member: 1283"] Kyle, I've come to enjoy the contrast between a sweet and sometimes sweet and spicy (Perique! Or dark fired KY...) VA blend and a peaty, smokey, briny Islay singlemalt. It just works for me. I drink more Laphroiag than any other spirit and some of my favorite tobacco pairings with it are FVF and Marlin flake. Although, last year I was on a Glenmorangie 10 kick for a while... Just a dab of peat in there to offset the vanilla and slight citrus and not too sweet; it seemed to go well with all my regular VA flakes. I don't usually want sweet from my whisky... If I'm feeling "sweet" I'll pop a bottle of port :) And you're right about some English/oriental blends liking to be smoked slowly; I only meant that they don't require slow smoking to taste good lol some VA blends either taste like nothing when burning too fast or even worse they turn acrid.
