I personally do not light them that way, but my friend does. After toasting, almost lighting the foot, I draw gently while keeping the flame juuuuust out of reach. The cigar flames up a bit and lights the foot evenly every time... indoors. :) You truly haven't lived until you find yourself in Havana having a cigar steward cutting and lighting a cigar for you, though. It's a remarkable ritual and a perfectly lit cigar handed to you. Nice write up. I personally do not light them that way, but my friend does.

I have been smoking for several years, but there was still some information I will try to incorporate into my smoking- like not puffing when I light... never thought about that, but it makes sense. Kudos on a great site. Excellent and thoughtful reviews with descriptions you can actually understand and relate to. Keep up the good work! Great article!
