Cigar lighter - a noble touch
Lighting a cigar is not like lighting the tip of a cigarette or the wick of a candle - it takes longer. Lighting your cigar is like roasting marshmallows over a campfire - hold the cigar above and near the flame, but don't let them touch. Burning a cigar directly in the flame will overheat it. And, as with marshmallows, you will need to rotate the cigar so that all parts of the tip are heated equally. Be patient and hold on until there is a glowing ring around the tip of the cigar. Once the cigar is lit, gently blow on the remainder of the ash to create a smooth, perfectly round ash.
Then, raise the unlit end of the cigar to your mouth and take the first puff. The question is, what method of puffing is used? Many cigar enthusiasts blow the first puff across the cigar to avoid unpleasant flavours such as sulphur in the match or gas in the lighter. Of course, no one should use more than one outward puff.
Some purists consider it shameful to have to relight a cigar. In fact, even the best cigars can go out when the conversation becomes so engaging that you forget to puff for a few minutes. Relighting a cigar is no worse than fishing a little cork out of a good glass of wine. It usually takes less time to relight an already hot cigar than it does to light it for the first time.
A cigar lighter is the easiest way to get an even light. What makes a lighter a cigar lighter? cigar lighters use odourless gas, often with a "fatter" flame, or even two adjacent flame sources, and an adjustable flame height.
cigar lighters come in a variety of designs and materials, so it's easy to find an accessory to suit your style. Of course, your first requirement should be performance. A good cigar puncher, like a good fountain pen, should fit in your hand. The cap should be easy to open and swing back so that the whole flame can be lit.
