Product Review: Xikar Genesis Lighter

I received the Xikar Lighter as a present for Father's Day. Since I had never had a Xikar lighter, I wondered how it would compare to my old flame lighters. My wife told me the story of how she came to choose the Xikar lighter over the other butane cigar lighters that she was looking at.

When she bought this lighter at our local cigar store, my wife asked how this compared to the other flame lighters I've had. The store owner told her that he was disappointed in the other butane cigar lighter brands, having seen their quality drop off over time. However, he pointed out the Xikar Lighter series, and noted that their quality has stayed steady, their product is backed by a lifetime warranty, and that their production has not been outsourced to inferior manufacturers. The store owner told her that the Xikar lighter was one of the best cigar lighters he has ever seen, and pointed out the Genesis series, since it was priced at around $40. Whether or not this was a good sales pitch, his remarks were enough to convince my wife, who prides herself on finding quality products.

When I first saw this flame lighter, it looked very similar to the other butane cigar lighters I've owned. However, when I tried the Xikar lighter for the first time, I noticed that this butane cigar lighter has good response time. I've used this flame lighter several times since, and it has not failed once. Compared to other lighters, the Xikar lights my cigar much more evenly and consistently. You can find this flame lighter online or at most local cigar stores. I highly recommend the Xikar Genesis lighter as one of the best cigar lighters you will find under $50.
