BACKWOODS

Shop Backwoods

Iconic flavoured cigars with a rustic, "backwoods" aura.

Backwoods, first introduced in 1973, was launched as a rustic, all-natural alternative to traditional cigars. Backwoods quickly caught fire for their distinctive "wild and mild" look, frayed edges, and aromatic flavours like Honey and Sweet Aromatic.

Originally marketed to outdoorsmen as the ideal smoke for camping, fishing, or relaxing in nature, Backwoods cigars were wrapped in a natural tobacco leaf rather than homogenized paper—setting them apart from mass-produced competitors.

In the 1990s and 2000s, Backwoods lived an unexpected second life in hip-hop and cannabis culture, becoming popular for their smooth burn and use in blunt rolling. Their nostalgic packaging, variety of sweet flavours, and relaxed image helped elevate them from convenience store cigar to a pop culture staple.

Today, Backwoods remains a top-selling machine-made cigar brand in North America and has a cult following among both traditional smokers and cannabis enthusiasts alike.

Why Choose Backwoods?
