Sipping whiskey while enjoying a fine cigar go together famously well, so it’s about time someone created a product that caters to both vices at once.
Thankfully, we have the Kentucky Double, a patented drink coaster and cigar ashtray combo that’s hand-assembled using American made 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, FAS grade hardwood sourced from Kentucky sawmills, premium full-grain leather, and a Kerckhaert racing horseshoe. Each handsomely-built coaster/ashtray is about nine inches long, five inches wide, and weighs in at one and-a-half-pounds.
Pairing your favorite stogie with a glass of bourbon would seem most appropriate given the Louisville-based brand’s proud Kentucky provenance, but the coaster also holds a cup of coffee just as well, if you’re aiming to enjoy a booze-free daytime smoke.
The Kentucky Double comes with a lifetime warranty as well as a leather carrying case, should you want to take it on the road.
It’s available in oak, walnut or cherry wood for $159, in addition to custom versions at thekentuckydouble.com.
