HERF announcement for anyone who is interested/crazy/smokes a lot.
We're doing a Cuaba Diadema Herf.
That is a monster figurado, 9.13x55. Comes from Cuba. Should be tasty. Also, it is expensive. Best price is about $15 a stick. They come in boxes of 5, at least, so it is fairly economical to buy them.
When?
When it happens. There is no set date--that will depend on how quickly box orders fill up, how quickly they get ordered and arrive, and then how quickly whoever is coordinating that box gets those cigars sent out to their fellow BOTLs.
Who?
I'm coordinating box # 1. All 5 slots are already spoken for and the box is ordered.
No one is coordinating box #2 (yet). So far, 2 of the 5 slots are spoken for.
If anyone from box #1 wants a second stick (or wants to run box 2?), just let me know and I'm sure it can work.
How?
Great question. Basically, seat of the pants.
What I'm doing right now is whoever is ordering the box will ship the smokes out to whoever is in. That makes sense in a vacuum. But if all the NJ guys are in, it doesn't make any sense to have Joe order and send out 4 packages to NJ when us NJ guys could all just meet up locally. And so on and so forth. Basically, however it works out best for common sense.
I don't imagine logistics will really be an issue since we're a small community and I doubt everyone will want in.
If anyone wants to run box #2, let me know. Someone has to, after all, or even if it fills up there won't be anyone ordering it and then there won't be anyone herfing.
More info, updates, and all that schitt to follow.
