Default Re: Beginner Questions (Ask Them Here!)

Ok I have a torch lighter that I bought and use to light all my smokes. I was at an event this weekend where a guy saw me smoking and asked if he could get a light. I proceed to give him my lighter and he said “oh you don’t use matches, never mind” and walked away. So my question is do matches really provide a better experience?

Some people prefer matches, others lighters. I would seriously doubt that triple or quintuple refined butane has much or any more negative effect on a cigar than a match.....guy sounded like a tool, bring your own fookin matches azzhat!!

Probably the kind of moron that has no idea how to work a torch lighter and didn't want to embarrass himself. There are many more than you would think.

If anyone tells you they can taste the butane from using a lighter, it's in their head because butane is odorless and tasteless.

Nope. Fire is fire, it is highly unlikely that the tobacco leaf knows the method of combustion.

FWIW some people will only smoke cigars rolled on the thighs of virgins. This guy sounds like he may be one of those smokers.
