The New Turismo is engineered for optimal comfort utilizing the hand’s natural progression to ignite the double jet flames. With pocket-friendly dimensions, protective flip-lid and over-sized fuel tank, this lighter is the perfect companion for your cigar.

The history of Xikar begins in 1994 in Kansas. Kurt Van Keppel, (now president of Xikar) who wanted to buy a good cigar cutter, found many of the cheap models and high-end models with low performance. So, he started with Scott Almsberger to design a more ergonomic handpiece. The result was the Xi cutter, which they built for the first time in their garages and is now the market leader.

XIKAR comes from the word sikar, which is said to be the first Spanish spelling of the word Taino for the cigar. The Tahn were the indigenous populations of Spain and Cuba, where Columbus landed for the first time when he discovered the New World and smoke with him. We changed S to a X (representing 2 blades) and we had X cut off i, like a cutter that cuts a cigar!

Today, the company produces a complete range of cigar products such as lighters, travel humidors, ashtrays, duty clocks, humidifiers, hygrometers, and so on.

Dimensions: 7,2cm Height x 4cm Width

Available in 4 colors (Black, Graphite, Blue and Red).

For security reasons, lighters in their packaging do not contain butane.
We recommend using a good quality butane such as Xikar Butane: XIKAR Purofine Butane for Lighters 250ml

The lighter contains gas under pressure, handle it with care. Keep the lighter away from the face when turning on or setting the flame. Keep out of reach of children.
