About This Product

The XIKAR Verano Flat Flame Lighter offers a distinctive alternative to conventional round jet flames. Its wide, thin torch flame spreads concentrated heat across a broader section of the cigar foot, combining the wind resistance of a jet lighter with greater coverage for efficient, even toasting.

Single-action ignition opens the protective flip-top lid and activates the flame in one movement, while XIKAR’s EZ-View fuel window makes the remaining butane easy to monitor. An oversized adjustment wheel provides straightforward control over flame intensity. For cigar smokers looking for broader coverage without moving to a multi-jet lighter, the Verano’s unusual flat flame offers a particularly practical middle ground.

How to Use
  1. Check the EZ-View fuel window to ensure sufficient butane remains.
  2. Adjust the flame intensity using the oversized adjustment wheel if required.
  3. Operate the single-action ignition to open the protective lid and activate the flat flame.
  4. Hold the cigar slightly above the flame, allowing its wide profile to spread heat across the foot.
  5. Rotate the cigar gradually so the entire circumference is toasted evenly.
  6. Draw gently while continuing to rotate until an even light is established.
  7. Release the ignition control to extinguish the flame.
  8. Allow the burner area to cool before storing the lighter, and refill with suitable purified butane when required.
Care & Maintenance
  • Wipe the exterior regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints, dust and surface residue.
  • Keep the flat burner outlet and surrounding air intakes clear of tobacco particles, ash and pocket lint.
  • Use good-quality purified butane to help maintain reliable ignition and a consistent flame pattern.
  • Close the protective lid between uses to help prevent debris from reaching the burner.
  • Check periodically that the flame ignites cleanly and maintains an even, flat shape.
  • Keep the ignition mechanism and oversized flame-adjustment wheel free from accumulated dirt.
  • Avoid inserting pins or other objects into the burner opening, as this can damage the flame system.
Safety & Handling
  • Keep the lighter out of reach of children.
  • Point the flat burner away from the face, clothing and other people before ignition.
  • Refill away from flames, sparks and other ignition sources.
  • Allow the burner and protective lid to cool after repeated or prolonged use.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight and temperatures above 50°C.
  • Never puncture, burn or otherwise damage the pressurised lighter body.
  • Ensure the flame is fully extinguished before carrying or storing the lighter.
