US brand Powstanie is releasing War Bear 2026 on November 11, Veterans Day in the United States, and describes it as the most limited edition in the line’s history: only 390 boxes of 21 cigars. Retailer orders are already open.
War Bear is part of the annual Wojtek Series, which began in 2019 and honours Wojtek, the bear who served as an enlisted soldier with the Polish II Corps in the Second World War and carried ammunition at the Battle of Monte Cassino.
The cigar is a 7 x 48 box-pressed Churchill with a barber-pole look, created by twisting together two wrappers: Ecuadorian Habano and Mexican San Andrés. The binder is Indonesian, and the filler comes from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. It is made at the Nica Sueño factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. The suggested price is $16.50 per cigar, or $346.50 per box.
