I personally think Davidoff cigars are a rip off, but this is an excellent video, with great techniques for lighting a cigar with a soft flame.

I use this method. When I have new people joining me for a smoke, I teach them this way. I don't always have access to cedar strips for lighting though.

I wish I had the patience for this method. I toast my cigars but with a torch, if it's a smaller ring gauge then I'll break out the soft flame. I'll be in London in a couple weeks and I'm hoping to stop by the store.

Speaking on Davidoffs, I think they have some solid sticks but their prices are pretty outrageous sometimes. I'm a fan of their Grand Cru line and Nicaraguans but their Churchills are a total rip off. I will say that their construction is perfect 99% of the time and the flavor is very consistent.
