herfing

I have never been to a herf, but I always hear people talk about bringing 5 or so sticks.  Do you actaully smoke several full cigars while at these events or do you just smoke some of each, like you are tasting cigars?

    I think the point of bringing that many is so you can give away/trade others for some sticks. I've never been to a 'herf' with other BORKS, only a few tastings at my local B&M.

    typically you would trade at a herf, when we did the SE herf I brought my travel Humi (15 ct) and a C.com bag full of the new Sun Grown's which I gave 2 to all the BORK's that showed up, the other guys also shared sticks and 2 of the guys opened their travel Humi's and said "pick one". I also traded a guy a Gurkha Centurian X since he never had one and I got a RP 92 from him, also gave some random guy one of the left over Sun Grown's I had because I love spreading the word of C.com's house blends.

    I usually bring 3-5 sticks that I will smoke to the finish, as well as about 10 others that I bring to trade or give away. Sometimes I will smoke all full bodied cigars, but more likely I'll start off with something mild, and work my way up.

    I usually bring 2 or 3 to smoke myself + 5-10 more to trade/gift away. I try to bring a variety of sticks and at least 2 cheaper everyday type smokes to give out to non cigar or "on the fence" type casual smokers that sometimes show up to these things. Have fun enjoy, and don't be the guy sitting in the corner not talking to anyone.
