Seriously James?
Are you trying to light the cigar while it's in your mouth? If so, I can understand you burning it. Also, is the lighter you're using triple or double torch? If so, you may want to stick with single. Hold the stick in your hand and turn it as you light the cigar, blow on the foot until it's all red.
I still burn cigars trying to light them when they're in my mouth, so I seldom do it.
