Hi All! This be my first post. Firstly, apologies for this post. I ran a search, and didn'[t come up with anything to help me out.

I have only recently taken up cigar smoking, and I have been told the way I light them is incorrect. Can I get some guidance, so I can at least look like I know what Im doing.

Well, you say, what is he doing?. Holding the cigar in my hand, light the lighter (dont use matches due to sulphur? ) hold the cigar above the flame, and rotate it slowly, ensuring that the cigar lights evenly. Bring to mouth, puff thru it a couple of times, to get rid of any, for lack of a beter word, crud due to lighting, then enjoy.

What am I smoking? Well like all new things, you dont go out and blow your pay cheque on something new, that your not sure your going to like, so I have some Old Port Colts, Hav-A-Tampa Jewels, and some Henri Wintermans Corona DeLux. You may scoff at my choice, but Im doing this blind, so I am finding what I like, and searching the web for some good cigars, that I can easily get here in NSW, Australia.

Well, any input would be well read.

Cheers!!
