Why not? They are just another butane lighter and butane is odorless and tasteless, fwiw.

Very interesting to learn this. I think its here or it was probably on the old fourm where I read that the disposable lighters are ussally not butane.
I guess I got wrong info.

bics are butane.
the only reason i dont use them is because they are not wind resistant/proof.
and i smoke outside as much as i can.

I just want to share that I knew about this toast lighting method for a long time but just out of pure laziness I usally just light and puff. After reading this thread yesterday.
Just now I took my time and lit my cigar by toasting from a distance. I have to say its is definitely a whole different experience. The cigar is just so much better, all I taste and smell is cigar flavor. Not burnt smoke. A lesson learnd.
