How do I light a cigar properly

To light a cigar properly, you should take your time and ensure an even burn from the start.

Begin by holding the cigar at a slight angle and applying heat to the foot (the open end), without touching the flame directly to the cigar.

Gently rotate the cigar as you heat it to ensure the entire foot is evenly warmed.

Once the foot is evenly toasted, place the cigar in your mouth and take slow draws while continuing to apply heat.

Rotate the cigar as you draw to achieve an even light across the entire surface.

Avoid rushing this process, as an uneven light can lead to burn issues.

For best results, use:
- Butane lighter  
- Wooden matches  

Avoid using petrol or gas lighters, as they can affect the flavour of the cigar.

If needed, you can gently touch up the burn with a lighter to keep it even.

Taking your time when lighting your cigar will help ensure a more even burn and a better overall smoking experience.
