Experience the pinnacle of collaboration in the tobacco world with the Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse Cigarillos. This limited edition release brings together two titans of the industry: the legendary Backwoods brand, known for its rustic charm and natural leaf wrappers, and GasHouse, a name synonymous with high-end, exotic quality. This specific offering includes 8 packs of 5, providing a total of 40 premium cigarillos that cater to the connoisseur who demands both flavor and authenticity. As a standout addition to our Premium Cigarillos & Small Cigars range, these sticks represent the intersection of street culture and traditional craftsmanship.
The Ultimate Collaboration: Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse
When you think of "Zaza," you think of the highest quality, and the Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse partnership does not disappoint. This collaboration was born out of a desire to create something truly unique for the modern smoker. While standard Backwoods are celebrated for their consistency and rugged appeal, the Zaza x GasHouse edition elevates the experience with a curated blend of tobacco and a meticulously selected natural leaf wrapper. This isn't just another cigarillo; it is a collector's item and a daily luxury rolled into one.
The "GasHouse" influence ensures that every puff delivers a robust, satisfying profile that mirrors the "exotic" standards of the West Coast tobacco scene. By combining the heritage of Backwoods with the trend-setting prestige of GasHouse, these cigarillos have become one of the most sought-after releases in recent years. Whether you are a long-time fan of the brand or a newcomer looking for the best the market has to offer, this 8-pack bundle is the perfect way to secure your supply of this hard-to-find exotic leaf.
Premium Natural Leaf Wrapper and Rustic Construction
The hallmark of any genuine Backwoods product is the natural leaf wrapper. Unlike many machine-made cigars that use homogenized tobacco leaf (HTL) or reconstituted paper, the Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse uses a whole tobacco leaf. This provides a rustic, unfinished head and a frayed foot that smokers have loved since the 1970s. The natural leaf ensures a slow, even burn and a flavor profile that is deeply rooted in the earthiness of high-quality tobacco.
The construction of these cigarillos is intentionally "wild." They are not meant to look like the perfectly manicured cigars found in a humidor; instead, they offer a "roll-your-own" aesthetic with the convenience of a machine-made product. This rustic construction allows for a more generous airflow, resulting in thick, aromatic clouds of smoke. Part of our 8 Packs of 5 Leaf Wraps and Tobacco Blends, these cigarillos maintain the high standards of moisture and freshness that Backwoods is famous for, ensuring they are never dry or brittle when you crack open a fresh pouch.
Flavor Profile: Exotic, Bold, and Smooth
What sets the Zaza x GasHouse apart from the standard "Sweet Aromatic" or "Honey Berry" varieties? It is the complexity of the tobacco blend. You can expect a deep, rich tobacco flavor with subtle undertones of sweetness and spice. The "Zaza" influence implies a premium "top-shelf" experience, and the taste reflects that. It is a bold smoke that remains smooth on the exhale, making it suitable for both short breaks and long, relaxing sessions.
-

-

-
Body: Medium to full-bodied, providing a satisfying throat hit.
-
Finish: Clean and lingering, inviting you back for another puff.
Why Choose the 8 Packs of 5 Bundle?
For the dedicated smoker, buying in bulk is the only way to go, especially with limited edition releases like the Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse. This bundle contains 8 individual pouches, each containing 5 cigarillos. This packaging is designed to keep the tobacco fresh; once you open a pouch, the remaining 7 stay hermetically sealed, preserving the natural oils and moisture levels of the leaf. This is a significant advantage over larger boxes where the tobacco might dry out before you reach the bottom.
Furthermore, the 8x5 configuration is highly portable. You can easily slip a pouch into your pocket or bag, ensuring you have your favorite exotic cigarillos wherever you go. For those who enjoy variety, these are often paired with other selections from our 15 Packs of 4 Tobacco Bundles to ensure a diverse smoking rotation. Buying the 8-pack bundle also offers a better price-per-cigarillo than buying individual pouches at a local convenience store—if you can even find them in stock.
The Rise of Exotic Tobacco Culture
In recent years, the tobacco industry has seen a massive shift toward "exotic" branding. This movement is driven by a desire for exclusivity and higher-quality ingredients. The Backwoods Zaza x GasHouse is the poster child for this movement. By leveraging the "Zaza" terminology—originally used to describe high-grade botanicals—Backwoods has signaled to the market that this product is a step above the rest. It appeals to a demographic that values brand identity as much as product performance.
This cultural shift has made limited edition Backwoods highly collectible. Many enthusiasts keep unopened pouches as part of a collection, while others hunt for them across the country. We take pride in keeping these in stock and ready to ship, so you don't have to spend your time searching from shop to shop.

How to Properly Store Your Backwoods
While the resealable pouches do an excellent job of maintaining freshness, proper storage is key to enjoying the full flavor of the Zaza x GasHouse blend. We recommend keeping your 8-pack bundle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If you live in a particularly dry climate, you might consider placing the pouches inside a large freezer bag or a dedicated humidor set to a slightly lower humidity (around 62-65%) to prevent the natural leaf from becoming too moist or too brittle. A well-maintained Backwood provides the perfect "squish" and a seamless unraveling process if you choose to customize your smoke.
A Tradition of Excellence Since 1973
Backwoods has been a staple of the American tobacco landscape since 1973. Originally launched to compete with the rise of mass-produced, homogenized cigars, Backwoods carved out a niche by leaning into the "all-natural" aesthetic. The brand's commitment to using real broadleaf wrappers has never wavered, even as they have expanded into various flavors and high-profile collaborations like the GasHouse partnership. This history of consistency is why smokers trust the Backwoods name when they want a reliable, flavorful, and authentic experience.
The Zaza x GasHouse edition is a tribute to this long-standing tradition, proving that even a classic brand can innovate and stay relevant in a rapidly changing market. By combining old-school manufacturing techniques with modern "exotic" branding, they have created a product that resonates across generations.
