Powstanie was founded by brothers Mike and Gregg Szczepankiewicz after major retailers began suppressing manufacturer inventory access to independent shops. Powstanie is Polish for 'uprising' — a name chosen to reflect the brand's mission of putting independent retailers first. The cigars are produced at Nica Sueño in Estelí, Nicaragua.
The Powstanie Habano Corona Gorda is a refined, medium-sized vitola at 5½ inches with a 46 ring gauge. The Habano wrapper brings natural oiliness and complexity, while the Nicaraguan core delivers depth and balance. Box count: 21 cigars.
Rich dark chocolate, toasted nuts, leather, and a whisper of natural sweetness. The narrower ring gauge concentrates flavor beautifully, making each draw precise and satisfying. A medium-to-full smoke that never overwhelms.
Alcoholic: A small-batch bourbon or aged rum complement the chocolate and leather notes perfectly. Non-Alcoholic: A medium-dark roast coffee or horchata.
A versatile smoke suitable for mid-afternoon or after dinner. Approximately 45–60 minutes. A great everyday choice for the serious enthusiast.
