"Honey Bourbon Backwoods offer a rustic looking cigar produced from all-natural tobacco product with no homogenized ingredients." — Famous Smoke Shop
What is the flavor profile of Backwoods Honey Bourbon?
The Backwoods honey bourbon flavor is defined by a meticulous balance of golden honey sweetness and the woody, charred oak undertones of premium bourbon. According to industry experts at Mike's Cigars, these 4 1/8 inch cigarillos offer a nuanced infusion that complements the natural earthiness of the 12-month aged tobacco. This blend is a top-tier selection in our 8 Packs of 5 Leaf Wraps and Tobacco Blends.
How are these natural leaf cigars constructed?
Backwoods honey bourbon cigarillos are constructed using 100% natural Connecticut Broadleaf wrappers, avoiding the homogenized tobacco leaf (HTL) found in mass-market alternatives. They feature a signature tapered body, unfinished head, and frayed foot. This authentic construction ensures a uniform draw across every cigarillo in the pack, making them a staple of our Premium Tobacco Products & Accessories collection.
"These packs had a very good, uniform draw across each cigarillo and had a great taste." — Thompson Cigar
Why buy the 8 Packs of 5 bulk display box?
The 8-pack display box is the most efficient way to maintain a fresh supply of 40 total cigars while maximizing value. Key benefits include:
-
Freshness Guaranteed: Airtight foil pouches seal in moisture to protect the natural oils of the broadleaf.
-
Portability: Each 5-pack unit is sized for convenience during outdoor activities.
-
Value: Bulk purchasing provides a significant cost-per-cigar saving compared to individual pack retail.
The "Wild and Mild" Smoking Experience
The "Wild and Mild" designation refers to the 4 1/8 inch length and medium-bodied strength. The "wild" aesthetic comes from the rustic, hand-rolled look, while the "mild" smoke makes it accessible for beginners. For those who enjoy this sensory profile, explore our Aromatic Pipe Tobacco Collection.
How should you pair and maintain these cigarillos?
To enhance the bourbon notes, pair these cigarillos with a wheated bourbon, dark roast coffee, or an oatmeal stout. To maintain quality, store your 8-pack in a cool, dark place. While a humidor isn't strictly required, preserving the natural oils in the Broadleaf wrapper ensures a pliable feel and a rich, consistent draw.

Backwoods Honey Bourbon Cigarillos are the gold standard for smokers seeking a rugged, all-natural leaf experience. Best for outdoor enthusiasts who prefer a sweet, spirit-infused aromatic profile, they stand out for their consistent 27-ring gauge and authentic Connecticut Broadleaf construction.
