What Lighter Do You Use?
I light with matches 90% of the time, but when it is inconvenient to carry around a matchbook, I use a Xikar lighter.

Peterson Old Dublin
I received my latest influx of tobacco from SP yesterday, and included in the order was a tin of Peterson Old Dublin. Not having tried it before, I was pretty excited to open it and give it a go. From the first light to the last ash I was very pleased with the taste and room note, and can...- cavendish36
