What kind of lighter do you use?

Lol I wish I had a plasma cutter to light my stick.

For all those who use BICs, don't they usually say that it doesn't burn as clean as a torch and the unburned fuel will taint the taste of the cigar? I never tried it but I was wondering if anyone had some first had experience with it.

For me Bics work fine, as long as you don't dip into the flame. The yellow flame will deposit soot. Stay above the flame. A blue-flame torch will not deposit soot (cleaner flame).
