For centuries, Nottinghamshire's Major Oak stood as a symbol of strength, shelter and resilience. But as the legendary canopy of Robin Hood's favourite tree finally falls silent, it leaves behind a powerful reminder: nothing lasts forever, and we all eventually need something strong to lean on.

While Sherwood Forest loses a giant, a new canopy is forming elsewhere.

We are incredibly proud to announce the birth of our new cigar HERF - a sanctuary built not from ancient timber, but from camaraderie,, leaves, and laughter.

More Than Just Smoke: Why We Herf

A "HERF" is technically just a gathering of cigar enthusiasts. But to us it's a lifeline.

We started this group with a crystal clear mission: to support men's mental health. In a world where guys are often told to bottle things up, mask their stress, or "man up", we are tearing down the walls.

Here is what you can expect when you come and smoke with us

  • Zero Judgement, Total Transparency: whether you're celebrating a win or carrying a heavy load there's a seat for you now in.

  • The Equaliser: cigars have a funny way of levelling the playing field it doesn't matter what you do for a living, once the matches are struck, we're just brothers sharing a stick.

  • The Best Medicine: we smoke cigars. And we laugh, Loudly laughter isn't just a distraction. It's a release valve for the mind.

Pull Up a Chair,

The Major Oak may have entered its final chapter. but the spirit of community it represents is alive and well. You don't need to be a cigar connoisseur to join us. You just need to be a man who appreciates good company, solid conversations and a safe space to unwind.

Let's spark up, check in on each other, and keep the laughter rolling.

Are you ready for the next meet up? What is the first cigar you're planning to bring to the next Herf to kick things off?
