I RARELY re-light a cigar..... I get a lot more ass flavor after I do re-light one... and that isn't my favorite flavor.

I have an uneven burning cigar once in awhile but a really tight draw absolutely kills it for me every time. Luckily at 65% I have not had any draw issues in awhile.

About the only advice that seems to work for lopsided burns is to turn the slow burning side down on the ashtray in between draws.

This does seem to help with the slightly askew burns but when it goes wonky by an inch or more, I generally find it to be a lost cause.

Unless we're talking a massive inch or more uneven burn, I don't care how it burns. The one thing that chafes me more than anything is a cigar that won't stay lit for 30 seconds on it's own though.

I'm almost at the end of a box of El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Larga, most of which have had "one sided" burn issues and I've used a lighter to even them up with no problems.
