Hold the cigar over the flame until a blackish ring forms around the end of the cigar.<\/p>\n<p>Place the cigar in your mouth and carefully take your first puff. Continue to hold the cigar about one centimetre above the flame. Continue to draw on the cigar until the end ignites. Turn the cigar slowly so that it burns evenly.<\/p>\n<p>Once the cigar is lit, take it out of your mouth and look at the burning area. If the end of the cigar does not seem to be burning evenly, blow on the areas that have not yet been lit to speed up the embers. You can then take two or three puffs on the cigar in succession to make the embers even.<\/p>\n<p>Note from Neuropool: We would like to point out that smoking cigars is harmful to health.
