It would depend on the herf. For normal one day herfs, I might smoke an EL or Regional as my first smoke. Especially if it is a big smoke as I usually dont like to smoke DC's or salamones for a everyday stick. Most likely though it will be a normal production mild or medium CC. Probably smoke 2 more CC's in progression saving a Boli or Partagas for the last CC. Then I move to full bodied NC's as my palate is pretty much blown out after smoking 3 larger CC's in a row. For a normal herf 3 NC's is about my limit. Then back to less expensive CC's like a JLP or an inexpensive Partagas. Trying at this point to back down on the nic. That's about 6-8 smokes for a normal 8-10hour herf.
