Backwoods.. best gas station cigar?

[rychenroll88]

Hi Im new to the site.....I rarely smoke drugstore/gas station cigars but i was at my local drugstore last night and i wanted to try a pack of Backwoods, and to my surprise these have got to be the best drugstore cigars i ever had! They have a nice sweet taste and smell. especially the aromatics. Has anyone else tried these?

I had one once. I thought I was smoking a dog turd.

My favorite gas station cigar was always the Antonio y Cleopatras.

I'm going to go against the grain and say I like the aromatic ones. I think they're pretty good for what they are, and I don't have to spend $5 for a mild after lunch smoke or something.

They are not rolled very well but I smoke the natural when camping sometimes. They can be tight or loose to the point of falling apart. Less offensive to the non smokers around.

maybe the best if you are rolling a spliff... or would that be a swisher?

I actually like but only in the winter or dont have an hour. I usually smoke the Wild Rum or honey flavors but in a pinch sweet aromatics work.

Yea I'd probably get backwoods if I had to get a gas station smoke. If I remember correctly it was only the aromatic ones I liked because they don't have a sweetened tip but put off a nice aroma. I used to smoke 'em at work for a short break smoke, but after you smoke about 3 in one day they'll start tasting like cardboard.

Good for a random smoke when theres nothing else you can get your hands on, but I'd never smoke 'em regularly again. thankfully I've moved on ha.

None of the others really come close.

I'll pop for the honey's on occasion, mostly if I'm out driving around aimlessly - which is something that I don't do these days with gas prices (well in the summer anyway at $4.00 a gallon - and driving aimlessly in the winter just isn't the same).

Other people think I'm driving aimlessly all the time.

The backwoods are good if you

A. Have to buy a cigar at a drug store

B. Are to lazy to search the neighbors lawn for a dog or cat turd depending on your taste preference

What breed?
I'll smoke a Backwoods on occasion. The grandkids like to give grandpa a pack of cigars
for Christmas or birthday. All they know is grandpa likes cigars. Anything they give is my favorite.
