Backwoods Dark Stout brings a stout inspired flavour to tobacco aged at least 12 months, adding a darker twist to the mild and sweet Backwoods profile. Each 4 1/2 x 32 cigar is made in the Dominican Republic in the brand’s famous rustic style.
Ageing brings out the tobacco’s natural sweetness before the leaves are enhanced with flavouring. The dark stout theme adds depth to that sweetness, giving a profile that feels richer than the lighter fruit releases while staying mild and approachable.
Backwoods are rolled loosely with even pressure, so the tobacco is not compressed unevenly. This gives the rustic frayed end, tapered body and unfinished head, plus an easy, even draw that packs plenty of flavour into the slim 32 ring gauge.
Introduced nationally in 1981, Backwoods became an overnight success with its Wild and Mild look. Backwoods Dark Stout carries that heritage forward, with five cigars per pack for smokers who enjoy a sweet, darker flavoured cigar.

Starts with a strong chocolatey flavor that fades into a smooth, deep generic richness. (I don’t drink, so I can’t attest to whether or not that fits dark stouts)
They’re still a Backwoods, so don’t expect amazing or complex. But it’s still quite enjoyable. If you’re a fan of other Backwoods flavors, Dark Stout is one of their best. (assuming you like chocolatey richness)
