Backwoods FAQs
What are Backwoods?
Backwoods are are rustic, flavored, affordable, easy to find, and instantly recognizable cigarillos. They have a rough natural-leaf appearance and come in many flavors. They’re typically mild to medium in body, and sweetness usually plays a strong role in the flavor. They’re popular cigarillos, and they have a strong following - almost a cult-like status - with some Backwoods enthusiasts.
Do you inhale Backwoods?
No, you aren’t meant to inhale Backwoods. Instead, you puff on them - just taking the smoke into your mouth to enjoy the flavor and letting it back out. You aren’t meant to inhale the smoke from Backwoods into your lungs.
Do Backwoods have nicotine?
Yes, Backwoods contain nicotine. They’re made of real tobacco, and tobacco contains nicotine. Because Backwoods are not meant to be inhaled, the nicotine in them is absorbed through the mouth rather than through the lungs.
What are Backwoods made of?
Backwoods are made of tobacco and flavorings. They’re made up of short-filler tobacco wrapped in shaggy tobacco leaf. They also contain flavoring to give them their signature flavors - from Honey Bourbon to Guatemala Satin.
Can Backwoods mold?
Yes, Backwoods can mold if stored in warm, damp conditions. When tobacco is stored at too high a humidity, mold can form. Backwoods are made of tobacco, so they can grow mold the same way any other tobacco can. Avoid storing your Backwoods in warm, damp conditions, and aim to keep the humidity below 72 percent. You’ll know your Backwoods has developed mold if you see fuzzy spots on it. If your Backwoods is moldy, we do not suggest smoking it.
