If you adored these cool scenes and wanted to experience for yourself the adventures of a nomad cowboy and a traveller, be sure to bring your own flask during your travel to complete the cowboy look and experience. In real life, however, you can also drink from your flask, with your back settled comfortably on a tree trunk, less the gun chase, of course.

Yet, you can’t fault the cigars. They might not want us to elevate their reputation and status by deeming them synonymous with luxury and sophistication; for all we know, cigars are standing in the background - looking lovingly at pipes and cigarettes - yelling, “Can’t we all just get along?” Luckily, cigars might have found something to relieve their loneliness: they just may have a lifelong companion in barley wine.
