Default Cigar burning issue

Ok all... When you read this, keep in mind that I consider myself as a newb!

Since the weather in NW Ohio has been too cold to smoke outside, I've been going to my local B&M quite a bit to smoke, and have been sampling a wide variety of their smokes. Over the past couple of weeks, each cigar that I've had there seems to be burning inside and leaving the wrapper intact. I gently use my lighter to toast the wrapper where it's shrunken around the burning inside, and the cigar takes off again. Am I doing something wrong? Drawing too fast or too slow? I've tried numerous different types of cigars, and they have all had the same trouble. I don't know if the cut matters, but I've been using a punch rather than a straight cut.

Any ideas? I appreciate the help!

Nick
