Puffing after ashing is what I do to. Even if just a half a puff, keeps things moving along. I think getting a great light from the beginning helps most of all.
I've been getting the best results with my eagle torch single flame. It allows for a precision lighting all around the foot face without over scorching beyond the face (black singe and soot on the first 1/2 inch of wrapper is indicative of over scorch). It's sometimes unavoidable if you are lighting in the wind or while driving. It also a much bigger problem with larger lighters and quad flames.
A great start, quick puff after ashing, and not over puffing and heating up the cigar, makes for a perfect burn.

I thought that was a pretty elementary concept, @peter4jc 😁
I noticed that when I ash frequently, I get a nice round cherry at the top of my cigar. But when I let the ash hang on for three or four inches, when I tap it off, my cherry looks like the top of a witch's hat, and I don't feel like I'm smoking any faster.

I also use a single flame
C'mon, Frank. I thought you would wade in on how the ash keeps the cherry hotter because it's holding in the heat.

I stopped trimming and just go straight for the wax job now.
Some might say you are compensating, a Nub perhaps? 😜
It's a lighter AND a shake weight.

Thanks for the image of Frank shaking that thing in front of his heater......
That guy really needs to trim that pinky nail....Or put on some polish on it....
