On July 16th, 2011, one of the most popular cigar communities – Brothers Of The Leaf (BOTL) has scheduled another annual BOTL HERF 2011 to celebrate and recognize the passion of cigar smoking. For those who are not familiar with the urban term herf, it is simply a gathering of cigar smokers who meet in a central location, or virtually, to share their appreciation of fine cigars. Upon arrival at the event, I was greeted by fellow comrades with an unexpected gift pack full of quality and hard-to-find cigars. Even though I have experienced this so many times, I’m still pleasantly surprised at the generosity and selflessness of cigar smokers. Friends, people you just met, strangers are always willing to share and go an extra mile to help each other out – quality that is lacking in today’s world. The BOTL HERF’s agenda was simple: smoke cigars, converse, smoke cigars, play cards, smoke cigars, enjoy delicious BBQ provided by The Brownstone (* Yes, The Brownstone from The Housewives of NJ), and … smoke cigars. Personally, I have smoked the following: Liga Privada No9, Tatuaje Barclay Rex 100th Anniversary and Tatuaje Black Petite Lancero. In addition to great smokes, I have enjoyed friendly atmosphere, great camaraderie and look forward to future BOTL HERFs. Thanks to all for organizing it and your generosity !
