SaintMickey® Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Not that way! I use soft flame around wrapper and then torch on the "inside". Works best for me. Torch flame can make the wrapper burn uneven or even cause runners. My experience.
Kbb Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Mostly soft flame. But the furnace is unique for sure.

Thomasdenaro Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 that takes lighting a cigar to the next level, normally i just use a jet lighter
DBNInc Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 I really prefer spills, but in windy conditions I have no choice but to torch.

canadianbeaver Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Anything that makes fire. We found that our fanciest lighters broke, the big ones run out of juice fast, the small ones... whatever. So anything. We still like lighting sticks from cut up cedar from boxes sometime too. CB
Knilas Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Electric stove. J/k..lol. Matches or a spill. Then soft flame. If too windy, Vectren triple jet... Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
mnmlst Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 If I'm not fortunate enough to be near molten lava or the engine of an F-16, my next choice is a cedar spill. Light first, cut or punch second. 1

BrightonCorgi Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 I find the flames off the back of a vintage V12 Ferrari's exhaust make the cigar gassy tasting. Cedar spill or a Dupont cigar flame lighter. 1
Danimalia Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 For years, I was a soft flame guy. Mostly butane lighters. I messed around with spills and matches, but never noticed enough of a difference to make them worth the extra effort. For the past year or so, though, I've been using torches. Particularly for anything >44RG or so, the convenience factor just won out. To each their own, of course.
JamesNYC Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 I prefer but seldom use spills, then a long wooden match or a jet lighter depending on wind conditions and availability of spills or matches.
