Every 30 second or so I blow on the end and touch up the burn as needed until the entire bottom is well lit. Allow the cigar to rest for about 15 to 20 seconds and then draw the first smoke through the cigar. I started doing this a while ago with all my cigars and it eliminated that "bitter" first 1/2 to 1/2 inch.

I love the two vintages and I have been using this lighting method and works great!
