Lighter or matches?
 
Just curious to which you prefer. Recently switched from torches to match lighting, not sure of any differences at this point.

I use lighters because they are much easier for me.

Torch.

Over the years I've used everything from long cigar matches, to cedar strips, to every kind of lighter including Zippos (in those days of yore) and compared to a solid torch, they seem like rubbing sticks together.

Any noticeable differences in taste?

Torch usually, might be switching to matches soon.

No preferences, I'll use whatever is handy that has a flame which isn't polluted or tainted (ie: tiki torches)

Single torch here but there was a time when I tried the matches/cedar strip thing. It was just too much work as I am impatient that way.

I prefer a torch but matches are my choice when I'm out of the wind.

Quad flame torch. I must be compensating for something.

I use both mainly a single flame torch.

I have recently switched to a soft single flame and I really like not having that scorched taste, I still use a single or double torch flame for touch ups.

I agree, have noticed a better taste with a soft flame...
