BigWill Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I have this great co-worker from Canada and she knows that I'm into cigars. She's so nice, she brought me several cigars back from her trip to see her parents. What she brought is the funny part, she brought me a pack of Canadian Backwoods and something else called Primetimes. The Primetimes have a filter like a cigarette. I graciously thanked her and accepted her gift. Would any of you smoke one to be nice? I don't think I can... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreanCowboy Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Probably better than the fake Cohibas she could have gotten you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finecigar Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Save the backwoods for whenever you are drinking beyond your limit and need a few puffs and will have no memory of it... But those other "cigars" are basically cigarettes to avoid taxes (at least that's how they are in the states) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebigk Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think of the Backwoods like the fat ugly girl it's fun to ride until your friends see you and the filtered ones need to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madandana Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 We used to smoke alot of Backwoods. I always enjoyed them. Not top notch but good when fishing mowing the lawn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poisonowns Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 That is definitely something my wife would do. All the best intentions but the end result is kind of meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 if you could, send an unopened one back to Canada. label it 'Cigars' and i'll toss you a fiver. i REALLY wanna see what customs would charge me when they see that there's ALREADY a canadian health sticker on them. fun little experiment, not that i think about it.

maxcjs0101 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 OP didnt mention that his co-worker was into or knew about cigars. In my opinion, that was kind. I've not tried primetimes but the Backwoods is pretty decent for its price, unless you're comparing them to Cohibas which i believe most of you here wont.

BigWill Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Just to be clear, I really appreciate her effort. She knows nothing about cigars but thought enough of me to smuggle some back. I knew that this group would see the humor in her friendly gesture. Thanks all of your input. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnLimitada Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Did she need to smuggle them? Are they Cuban? Never heard of either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Did she need to smuggle them? Are they Cuban? Never heard of either. naaaaaah, they're crappy lil' American sticks that taste and light like cardboard. i could've grown better tobacco with a sunroof!

Fosgate Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 It's the thought that counts. My family has a tradition of smoking backwoods with some home mix schnapps when ice fishing overnight. I'd still dive into one just to remember old times of sleeping overnight and finding the shack is buried in snow and we may not make it to shore anytime soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
