I prefer to use a Zippo whenever I can. Never had any taste difference from the fluid. A Zippo is hard to use if you are outside, that's why I bought one of those cheap torch lighters ($2) works better than any expensive one. I have found that the fluid does evaporate quickly, so I bought on of these.... Zippo

Hey CC..... I'll take you up on that challenge...... you supply the cigars and I'll bring the lighters
