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 Toro offers the full expression of the Habano blend in a generous 6 x 52 format. The extra length allows the blend to evolve through distinct flavor stages, making it one of the most dynamic vitolas in the lineup. Box count: 21 cigars.
An expansive smoke that opens with toasted cedar and black pepper, transitions into rich dark chocolate and earth mid-smoke, and finishes with a long, satisfying blend of leather and natural sweetness. Medium to full strength throughout.
Alcoholic: A peaty single malt Scotch or a bold amaro. Non-Alcoholic: Dark roast espresso or a cold brew concentrate over ice.
A premium after-dinner experience for the patient smoker. Allow 75–90 minutes. The toro format rewards those who smoke slowly and let the blend fully develop.
