Backwoods

Backwoods Cigars – Authentic Wilderness-Style Cigars for Australian Smokers

Backwoods cigars hold a distinct place in the global cigar world, loved for their rugged character, rustic leaf appearance, and unmistakably bold flavour profile. At CigarsOnlineAustralia.com, we proudly offer Australian smokers a premium selection of authentic Backwoods cigars sourced from trusted international suppliers. Whether you’re a seasoned cigar enthusiast or someone who enjoys a smooth, easy-burning cigar with attitude, this category delivers a unique smoking experience shaped by craftsmanship, natural tobacco quality, and true American heritage.

Backwoods cigars originated in the United States and quickly became popular for their wild leaf wraps and instantly recognisable tapered shape. What sets Backwoods apart is their commitment to a purely natural leaf approach — no perfectly pressed wrappers or machine-polished finishes. Instead, each cigar is wrapped in a whole, broadleaf tobacco leaf and filled with high-quality, carefully blended tobacco. This creates a flavourful, aromatic smoke that burns evenly and offers a satisfying draw from start to finish.

These cigars have gained legendary status among outdoor lovers, casual smokers, and collectors who appreciate the raw, unfiltered feel of a traditional rustic cigar. Their medium strength, rich aroma, and range of signature flavours make them a favourite among Australian consumers seeking a premium yet easy-going smoke. Backwoods cigars are also known for their convenience and portability, making them ideal for social gatherings, road trips, camping, and everyday relaxation.

Heritage, Craftsmanship & Leaf Quality

Backwoods cigars are made from natural broadleaf tobacco, air-cured to retain its original character. Unlike traditional hand-rolled cigars that emphasise aesthetic perfection, Backwoods celebrate the raw, natural appearance of the leaf. The rustic wrapper is part of their identity: textured, flavour-rich, and aromatic.

The filler blend is carefully curated to offer a slow, even burn with a naturally sweet undertone. Many Australian smokers appreciate Backwoods for the balance between strength and smoothness — a cigar that satisfies without overwhelming.

Storage Tips for Backwoods Cigars

While Backwoods cigars come sealed for freshness, proper storage ensures premium performance:

  • Keep cigars in a humidor between 62%–70% humidity

  • Store at a stable temperature between 16–21°C

  • Keep sealed packs away from direct sunlight

  • For short-term storage, reseal the pouch tightly

  • For long-term storage, transfer cigars to a humidor to maintain moisture

Following these guidelines preserves the soft leaf texture, aroma, and natural sweetness Backwoods cigars are known for.
