Bums,

I thought it would be fun to shout out about the cool new gadget we just bought to enhance our cigar smoking experience.

Mine isn't super-recent, but it's still my latest and certainly one of my favorites EVER. It's my IM Corona Classic lighter in brown calf skin. Most of you will see it and think "Old Boy" which it basically is. The difference is that rather than a horizontal flame trajectory, it employs a traditional vertical flame. It lights first time, every time and holds a lot more fuel than it's small-ish size would suggest. I can get roughly 8-10 "normal" ring cigars lit per fill. The action is buttery smooth and the build quality and weighty feel is standard IM Corona fare. It's just outstanding in every way.





There was a bit of a breeze when I took this pic, but the flame really is vertical.
