The best lighter for joints is one with a soft, controllable flame that does not scorch the paper or cherry. The top choice for daily joint use is the Clipper, which uses a soft butane flame, refillable tank, replaceable flint, and a rounded body designed to be held sideways for even toasting. The Bic Classic is a close second for cost-conscious buyers, offering reliable ignition and a soft flame in a disposable format. Zippo lighters work for joints but the strong wind-resistant flame can scorch papers if held too close, and the lighter fluid imparts a slight taste on the first few puffs. Avoid butane torches and jet flames for joints because the high-intensity flame burns through the paper instantly and creates uneven cherries. For hemp pre-rolls, blunts, and tobacco-wrapped products, a Clipper or Bic is ideal. Pair with our Rolling Papers and Cones collection. Angies Boutique stocks Clipper, Bic, and Zippo in dozens of designs at our 838 N Broadway Los Angeles shop, including limited Clipper artist series.
