Re: Toasting the foot: is it really necessary?
My favorite way to light a cigar is with a long cigar match and slowly toasting the foot. I don't know if it makes a difference if I were to just put it under a flame and start puffing, but it is more of a ritual for me now. I really enjoy slowly lighting the cigar and smelling the initial light and the beginning of a relaxing evening smoking a cigar.
Most of my problems I've noticed from a bad burn, unless construction is bad, is due to poor storing conditions. Or lighting a cigar straight out of the box after shipping when temptation gives in lol
