butane torch: fast, dependable and great for touch ups.
or sometimes cedar matches if I am in a cigar lounge.

If I'm inside or there is no wind I prefer a match...otherwise a butane torch.

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I prefer to use a match, but because I do most of my smoking outdoors, it's not always the best option.... So, I LOVE my Ronson. I bought a cheap backup torch for when I leave the house and forget my Ronson but pickup a little yummy for myself... I also bought a cheap guillotine for the same purpose.

I prefer lit cedar strips

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I prefer a soft flame to a hard flame as it toasts the cigar and not chars it...

Waynegro1 02-05-2010 07:22 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I like to use both butane and a soft flame, but I chose Butane since that's what I tend to grab most of the time.

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Match is fun inside but I use torch 99% of the time as I usually smoke outstide.

kelmac07 02-05-2010 07:28 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Butane...faster and easier to do touch ups.

Butane torch, Ronson to be specific.

sikk50 02-05-2010 08:12 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Generaly I use a butane lighter.

This may sound odd, but when they come with a ceder wrapper I like to light the wrapper and use it as a match. IDK why

Addiction 02-05-2010 08:22 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I've moved almost completely to soft flame lighters unless I happen to be outside in which case I use my extend.

My thoughts exactly.

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Butane lighter, EverTorch to be specific. Torch for toasting and a soft flame to finish all in a classly looking package, the perfect lighter.

TXRebel 02-05-2010 11:55 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I regularly use a Ronson Comet, soft flame.

icehog3 02-05-2010 11:58 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Butane torch for me. Used a Blazer PB-207 for years...my current go-to is the Blazer CG-001.

Whats that cigar? Looks like the size I like.

I use a Ronson jet lite butane torch.

Inside or out of the wind - lit cedar strip, for me it is part of the relaxation.

Outside - any lighter will do.

If I am inside, a soft-flame butane lighter. If I am outside, Ronson Jetlite butane torch.

Torch. I have a bunch of the cedar sleeves that I've been throwing in the desktop and cooler for ambience. I may throw a few in the Caddy to try lighting with at herfs. :tu

Butane Torch single or double flame depending on the gage, and matches

kgraybill 02-06-2010 08:24 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Butane torch unless I'm lighting a 42 ring gauge or smaller then I will use a match.

Butane torch

Rabidsquirrel 02-07-2010 12:50 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I'm surprised nobody mentioned $100 bills yet. I find the crisp bills to generate too strong a flame, so I wrinkle them first.

Generally I use whatever is on hand. If I have all three: Ronson, Bic, than matches.

acruce 02-07-2010 01:02 PM

Butane torch to get the foot started quick and evenly. A soft butane lighter for touch ups to avoid toasting the wrapper.

Can't beat my arsenal of $3 ronsons!

eber 02-08-2010 08:05 AM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
I like to use my Colibri flint fire soft flame lighter when I am inside, otherwise a butane torch, and very rarely matches

Pat1075 02-08-2010 06:00 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
butane lighter, soft flame

The Postman 02-08-2010 06:04 PM

Re: Which do you prefer using to light your cigar?
 
Lately I have been experimenting with wooden matches, but my favourite light is still a soft flame butane lighter, with my torch a close second.

Butane torch...and $3 Ronsons so I don't snap when I inevitably loose it.

Mr B 02-11-2010 10:48 AM

Butane torch all the way.
