butane torch: fast, dependable and great for touch ups.
or sometimes cedar matches if I am in a cigar lounge.

Butane lighter.

elderboy02 · 02-05-2010, 07:27 PM

Butane torch.

Neuromancer · 02-05-2010, 07:28 PM

Butane Torch, generally double or triple burner...

tuxpuff · 02-05-2010, 07:29 PM

If I'm inside or there is no wind I prefer a match...otherwise a butane torch.

Mr.Erskine · 02-05-2010, 07:30 PM

I prefer to use a match, but because I do most of my smoking outdoors, it's not always the best option.... So, I LOVE my Ronson. I bought a cheap backup torch for when I leave the house and forget my Ronson but pickup a little yummy for myself... I also bought a cheap guillotine for the same purpose.

cheap butane torch from any gas station... done

markem · 02-05-2010, 08:19 PM

I prefer lit cedar strips

SmokinApe · 02-05-2010, 08:19 PM

I prefer a soft flame to a hard flame as it toasts the cigar and not chars it...

02-05-2010, 08:22 PM

I like to use both butane and a soft flame, but I chose Butane since that's what I tend to grab most of the time.

captain53 · 02-05-2010, 08:25 PM

Match is fun inside but I use torch 99% of the time as I usually smoke outstide.

kelmac07 · 02-05-2010, 08:28 PM

Butane...faster and easier to do touch ups.

Gary · 02-05-2010, 08:30 PM

My newly acquired Vector Triple Flame Jet-Torch

maninblack · 02-05-2010, 08:50 PM

Butane torch.

WyGuy · 02-05-2010, 09:02 PM

Butane torch, Ronson to be specific.

sikk50 · 02-05-2010, 09:12 PM

Generaly I use a butane lighter.

This may sound odd, but when they come with a ceder wrapper I like to light the wrapper and use it as a match. IDK why

02-05-2010, 09:22 PM

I've moved almost completely to soft flame lighters unless I happen to be outside in which case I use my extend.

CasaDooley · 02-05-2010, 09:40 PM

Torch...Git er done!

Prospector · 02-05-2010, 09:51 PM

My favorite Zippo that I've had for years, with a butane torch insert.
