Back2Back Cigars is a big ring gauge line from Davidoff of Geneva USA, which began shipping it in October 2018 with artwork by the Brooklyn urban art duo UR New York. It brings back the blends and sizes of Room101’s Big Payback. There are two blends: Back2Back Nicaragua, a Nicaraguan puro, and Back2Back Connecticut, a Connecticut wrapper over a Mexican binder and Dominican fillers, each in 5 x 50, 6 x 60 and 7 x 70. A 2019 limited edition added a 7 x 52 torpedo. No primary source we have found states a strength range or flavour notes, so we give none here. To choose a first blend, go by wrapper: the Connecticut blend if you prefer a Connecticut wrapper, the Nicaragua blend if you want all-Nicaraguan tobacco. Oxford Cigar Company lists Back2Back on its Back2Back category page when in stock. Free US shipping on orders $50+.

Frequently asked questions about Back2Back Cigars
Who makes Back2Back cigars and where are they made?
Back2Back is a Davidoff of Geneva USA line. It began shipping in October 2018 with artwork by UR New York, a Brooklyn urban art duo, and it brings back the blends and sizes of Room101's Big Payback (halfwheel, 2018). We have not confirmed from a primary source the country where Back2Back cigars are rolled, so we do not state one.
How strong are Back2Back cigars?
No primary source we have found, including halfwheel's 2018 and 2019 reports on the line, gives a strength range or flavour notes for Back2Back, so we do not state one. What halfwheel does document is the tobacco: the Nicaragua blend is a Nicaraguan puro, and the Connecticut blend uses a Connecticut wrapper over a Mexican binder and Dominican fillers.
Which Back2Back cigar should I try first, and how do the blends differ?
There are two regular blends. Back2Back Nicaragua is a Nicaraguan puro. Back2Back Connecticut has a Connecticut wrapper, a Mexican binder and Dominican fillers. Both come in 5 x 50, 6 x 60 and 7 x 70 (halfwheel, 2018). A 2019 limited edition was a 7 x 52 torpedo with an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, a Connecticut binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua (halfwheel, 2019). If you prefer Connecticut-wrapped cigars, the Connecticut blend is the natural first choice. If you want all-Nicaraguan tobacco, choose the Nicaragua blend.
