Learn More About The Cigar Lighter

For most cigar aficionados, a cigar lighter defines the whole cigar smoking experience. Cigar lighters can be personalized by engraving  patterns or shapes so that one has a keepsake. Some lighter designs reflect well on a person's personality. Experienced cigar smokers who are conservative about their smoking experience like using traditional lighter designs such as the zippo lighter. However, there are also new sophisticated and sleek lighter designs that are suitable for people who like to show off their sophistication. For those who like to use their lighters for a number of applications, there are multipurpose lighters in the market.


When looking for quality lighters, it is wise to turn to those brands that are known to cigar enthusiasts and aficionados. One of the most popular brands is the Brizard Co. These lighters have an element of sophistication and are very comfortable to use. The Churchill and Retro 1 collections are the most popular from this company. Cigar lighters also come in a variety of designs and styles which include Lizard Havana, Crocodile Havana, Caviar, Lizard Tobacco, Sunrise Tan Leather and Sunrise Coffee under the Retro 1 collection. All of these styles are also available in the wider, shorter Churchill collection of cigar ighters.





Brizard Co. and some other few brands take their time to make high quality cigar lighters that can be treated as a collectors item. However, there are other brands like the Visol that make futuristic and sleek designs at a small fraction of the price of Brizard lighters. Some popular designs of Visol lighters include Dark Knight, Cole, Fireball, Mako, Falcon, Phantom, Nolet, Trulucks and Zidane. All these designs come in either a satin, brushed silver of black matte finishes. The flames produced by these lighters also vary depending on the collection. For instance, the polished Phantom Silver design has a uniqe double torch. To personalize the lighter you can choose to engrave markings on it.


Cigar enthusiasts who love both traditional and contemporary cigar lighter designs should opt for popular brands such as the Tonino Lamborghini. Some popular collections in this brand include the  Pergusa, Forza and the Aero. Unlike most common cigar lighter brands, these lighters come in a variety of vibrant colors such as red, green, yellow and orange in addition to the classic colors, black and silver. These lighters have a push button with a sleek titanium and stainless steel body. With all these features, these lighters cost a little more than other lighter designs.


Apart from the brand name of a cigar lighter, other factors to consider when looking for good quality cigar lighters include consistency  and color of the flame. Other people look for extra features in the lighter like a cigar cutter. Regardless of a person's taste and personal preference, there is a cigar lighter that will suit them perfectly.
