Default Re: Apologies & A Question about Cigar Clipping

Nope... In fact there is a lost art of having a cigar lit for you. It should be clipped, using a tool, and then a match flame should be held to the foot of the cigar while slowly rotating. After the cigar has begun to burn the lighter may actually chose to swing his arm while a bit of air passes through the cigar causing it to burn and straiten out.

I've never had a cigar lit for me like this, and as I understand it, very few people even know about it. But it seems cool. If I ever have the opportunity, I'll give it a shot.

Edit: I was actually searching for a video of this method and cannot find one. I believe the do it or did it in the Hotel Nacional, but am not finding it. IT's an interesting method nonetheless.
