Colibri Evo Single-Jet Flame Lighter

When lighting a fine cigar, presentation is everything. For a lighter worthy of your best Cubans, check out the Evo from Colibri. Designed with an extra-large fuel tank, it features a single-jet flame that can be adjusted with a simple twist on the oversized flame adjuster. The front of the lighter shows how much fuel you have left. To ignite it, press on the single-action ignition button and an angled flame springs from the top. A pachmayr grip on the sides of the body is aesthetically pleasant, while providing a solid hold. Altitude tested to 12,000 feet, the Evo is wind resistant and available in three colors. 

Colibri was born in 1928, when founder Julius Lowenthal invented the world’s first semi-automatic lighter: the Swiss-made Colibri Original. Over the years, the company has established a legacy of innovation in lighters, introducing the first visible multiple gas refill, hydraulic auto-flint system, and non-battery, non-flint system—Colibri even created the eponymous weapon for the James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun. In the 1980s, helmed by the third generation of Lowenthals, Colibri expanded its product line to include luxury pens, wristwatches, and more.
