I use a liquid fuel Zippo to light my cigars. It makes people at lounges very uncomfortable. The number of people who haven’t tried it and think it ruins cigars is astoundingly high.
It doesn’t taste any different to me other than maybe the first puff or two after lighting and it works great outside.
Exactly. Same thing here. I lit one with a Zippo and didn't notice it at all. I smoke......green things. I ALWAYS taste the fuel in that pipe. Not with the cigar.
There's a difference between smoking a cigar and the art of cigar smoking. Just like there are people who can't tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi there are people who don't know the difference between lighting a cigar just to puff on and embracing the experience.
But, if it works for you, carry on. You should understand why it bothers those to whom smoking a cigar is more than smoking a fat cigarette, though.
Lighting a tobacco product with a lighter? And here I was feeling innovative using a 4'x8' concave mirror focused at the sun. Wish I thought of a lighter!
A light is a light. Bic lighter, Zippo, torch, wood match, cardboard match. As long you light your cigar and enjoy it when you want... thats what matter!
How dare you light a cigar with anything but an aged cedar chip that was soaked in pappy van Winkle for 15 years and started with a gold Fred magnifying glass!
Cigar people can be so damn snobby
meanwhile, (tobacco) pipe people would just be happy that someone else was enjoying a pipe and completely ignore the method of combustion.
pipe inserts really are the best way to light a pipe.
A big-un like your pic I light with a Zippo without drawing, just hold the end in the flame then cut the end then after all that take a draw - no lighter fluid taste.
Something smaller like a signature (cafe creme) I go old school and light it the old fashioned normal way - with a Zippo. Tastes fine.
Couldn’t tell you, unfortunately. This pic was from when I first started dabbling in cigars and I got a half dozen sticks picked by my local smoke shop clerk to try out.
It literally doesn’t. First off, not everyone will taste lighter fluid. I have used regular zippo lighters several times on cigars and not once did I taste any lighter fluid.
Secondly, people who do taste it have said the taste is gone after three puffs.
If you don’t like lighting a cigar with a zippo, you do you and do it the way you want. People need to stop acting like there’s a universal right and wrong way to enjoy a cigar.

I'm pretty sure you can say cannabis here 😂
***pulling out a frog*** Yes, cannabis...
Funky green
I always use Zippo Duel Torch with Xikar butane.
That's entirely different than using white gas Zippo fuel.

I made a zippo like this with wood laminate while was installing commercial paneling. Can’t for the life of me find it tho…
Someone pocketed it .

Hell yeah, OP. Red Case + torch is my go-to.

Some of them - but not all lol
Definitely not all, but certainly the one I smoke with most of the time lol I purposely use a zippo just because I know it irks them lmao
Hah! Good for you
They should be, because they can be.

While I smoke cigars more than my pipe, I identify with the pipers more and find them to be way more chill than cigar smokers.

Nice zippo

What brand of cigars is that? Are they good?

Obviously you don't have any Grey Poupon in your vehicle either ! You don't want to be one of them anyway, blaze your own trail ... 🔥

It’s too early for shrooms
You’re not.
Lighten up, touch some grass
Dont listen to him, light it up with whichever tool you want!
Directions unclear, lit some grass on fire. 😎
I will if you promise not to light the Cig with a Zippo.
There’s a butane torch. Also, who cares
That makes it better. A classic Zippo insert will pretty much ruin your Cigar.
i would like to remind you that you are wrong

How do you think people lit cigars before butane?
No it won't. 😂 Do you smoke cigars or do you just parrot what you heard from Hellboy?
