Q & A: Choosing The Right Butane?
Q.
I recently purchased a torch lighter and noticed there are several options available when choosing the type of butane to use. What is the best butane available for use with my torch lighter?

Butane is produced by many different manufacturers, just like cigars. There are several different brands to choose from and many of those brands use different methods for creating their butane. It does not specifically matter which brand of butane you choose, but how that particular brand creates their butane is important. The purpose of using butane is because it burns very hot and clean, leaving no trace of an aftertaste, which is perfect for lighting your favorite cigar. However, not all butane is properly refined or filtered and therefore may create problems once used in your lighter.
