In addition to improving a Ruben A. Hill Premium cigar’s flavor as it ages, our cedar sleeve can be used to light the cigar. Your traditionalists, connoisseurs, and cigar aficionados will light a thin strip of cedar, called a cedar spill, on fire and light their cigar off the burning cedar. Using cedar to light a cigar prevents any residual taste from the butane in a lighter, or the sulfur on matches, from interfering with Ruben A. Hill Premium Cigars’ natural flavor.
