I was thinking of this after I got together with my smoking bro and cigar mentor this weekend (he has been smoking cuban cigars for +25 yrs). It´s allways crazy, two or three or maybe four in a evening. This time: a Cuaba Diadema, a Monte C and a R&J Cazadore. I really liked all three and never felt like "it´s to much".

Do you smoke like a mad man when getting together with your smoking bro/s?

Yep.. certainly do!!! I am fairly alone amongst my friends and in general here in regards to cigar smoking.....so when someone smokes cigars and we get together... I smoke quite a few... last time I met up with other cigar smokers.. 5 cigars were consumed (evening started at 5 pm and continuted to 2 am with lot of mineral water consumed to clense the palletts between the cigars).

I am a regular smoker and don't normally get effected either..mind you..if all of them would have been cazadores or boli ce.. that might have been different haha

I hear you Hawkan, those Cazadores was rather fresh (from 02) and even though the other cigars wasn´t weak (the Cuaba was a surprise close to the end) I wouldn´t have been standing straight after three of those Cazadores.

I usually loose count of how many cigars I smoke during a HERF. Normally I'll smoke 2-3 a week.

When I go out for a Herf typically its 2 or 3 depending on how long the Herf is and what size cigars I'm smoking. If I'm having a DC and its only a 3 hour herf then it might be just one or 2, with the second one being a usually a short smoke. If I'm not having a DC then I will usually have 3. :smt033

As many as time permits for me too..usually during the week that is one, but when getting together to smoke with friends there is no limit.

Smoked 7 at the herf last night. Had a great time thanks to Hawkan and Jerry since they were all a portion of that fine bomb.

I'm really the only one out of my groups of friends that smokes cigars regularly. Poker night I'll go through 2-5 depending on how long the night goes. During football games at home i'll easily go through 2-3 per game.

At a herf, the smokin' goes on as long as the herf does....I just keep goin' until it's over. The DC herf will be interesting, I plan to be smokin' pretty much all the time except meals...hehehe

WOW! I'm definately alone in this. Though my herf experience is very limited, I just don't think I could handle that many smokes in a short period. I dunno, guess I'll have to wait until I have the chance to be with some other cigar smokers for a long period of time to see how many I can handle! :)

I burn about 5 cigars at a normal herf. 2 or 3 when I visit a shop. unless I camp out at serious cigars, where I'll smoke up to 5. I do believe I smoked anywhere from 6-8 during the holiday party :smt028

I have yet to go past 4 when I am smoking with someone. My regular evening smoke, I typically just smoke 1.

When presented with so many new and wonderful choices at the last HERF,
I consumed no less than 8 fine Habanos in 9 hours. The tastes kept coming
and I kept smoking; tried so many fine aged sticks that I couldn't stop.

I think it important to note that we had a great selection of food, booze and espresso, also which balanced out the nicotine-infused insanity that unfolded.

I could easily have had 2-3 and been happy, but who's going to turn down smokin' out with the BOTL's!?! No wife, no kids, no worries!

I onlt have a couple of friends that share my love of cigars and when we get together I usually have 3-4 over the course of the night. But there is one weekend out of the year that all of the guys go away for the weekend and I will smoke 8-9 a day but they are very long days.

I am not as fortunate as many of you. I live in a very rural area (my nearest neighbor is 1 mile away) so not much smoking with friends. In fact, the majority of my smoking is during the morning 1 1/2 hour drive to Denver or on the weekends doing chores around the place.

This time of year my smoking is done in my hottub so I would have a hard time smoking more than one. Sometimes I will smoke one at work and then smoke one in the hot tub in the same day.

I find myself going for fewer , better quality sticks ,than more lesser quality.
