The pour that goes with it — from the bottles open tonight.
Once the cigar is chosen, Stack Finder suggests the drink to go with it, priced at your pour price, limited to what's actually behind your bar right now.
No other kiosk in the cigar business does this. For a lounge that pours, everything below is margin currently being left on the table.
Your bottles, not a chart
Pairings are generated against your real bar inventory. If the Zacapa is empty, it isn't suggested.
Priced at your pour
Bottles are tracked as bottles and as pours, so the guest sees the price they'll actually pay.
Two margins, one visit
A guest who came in for a $12 cigar leaves having spent $28 — without anyone having to upsell them.
Two ounces or four
A bottle you've priced as a double shows both sizes, second pour at half price — on the kiosk and on the phone. It only appears on bottles you've actually set up that way; nothing is invented.
And what goes in it
Order a vodka and it asks what's going in it — your mixers, your prices, splash, normal or extra. Or neat, in one tap. On the kiosk and on the phone.
Why a generic pairing chart isn't good enough
Every cigar magazine has run a pairing chart. They're fine reading and useless on a floor, because they recommend bottles you don't stock at prices you don't charge.
The moment a guest asks for the pairing and hears “we don't have that,” you've spent trust to gain nothing. Stack Finder only ever suggests what you can pour in the next thirty seconds.
Bottles and pours are the same object
Most systems can track a bottle or track a drink, not both. Stack Finder understands that one 750ml bottle is also twelve 2oz pours, and that selling the pour has to draw down the bottle.
That means the pairing engine knows what's genuinely available, and your bar inventory stays honest without anyone doing math at close.
This is the same live-stock discipline as the cigar side — one system, one source of truth.
The size, and then the mixer
A pour isn't one decision, it's two, and a kiosk that ignores the second one sends your bartender a ticket they have to chase. So the card asks both.
Size first: the single, or the double where you've priced one — second pour at half price. That's a real product in your POS, not a discount we invented, so it only shows on bottles you've actually set up that way and it rings correctly when your staff close it out.
Then what goes in it. Pick from the mixers your bar actually stocks, at your prices, and say whether it's a splash, a normal, or an extra. Neat is one tap and it's the first option on the sheet. Cocktails skip the question entirely — they already have a recipe.
The mixer rings as its own line on the parked sale, not as a note — every mixer is a real product in your POS, so the register charges it and the stock moves.
The questions this always raises.
What if I don't have a bar?
Then this feature stays off and the kiosk runs cigars-only. Nothing breaks and nothing empty shows up on screen.
Do I have to maintain a second inventory?
No. Bar stock is read the same way cigar stock is.
Can I control what gets suggested?
Yes. You decide which bottles are in the pairing pool — the rare stuff you'd rather not have a kiosk promoting can sit out.
It works with the rest of it.
