Cigar Review: Pospiech Powstanie Wojtek War Bear 2021

Initial Thoughts

It's a good thing we don't have to know how to pronounce Pospiech Powstanie Wojtek War Bear 2021 before we can smoke it. This barber-pole cigar has a complicated name, and we're going to see if it's worth trying.

The Powstanie Wojtek War Bear is an interesting cigar. It has two intertwined wrappers that hopefully add some complexity to the blend.

On the first puff, the flavors were of charred barbeque and wood, along with something woody and mellow. Very interesting.

After just a few minutes, there seemed to have been a hollow spot that developed that impacted airflow and smoke output. Additionally, I didn't find the flavors to be all that impressive.

Is the Pospiech Powstanie Wojtek War Bear 2021 worth over $13? Let's smoke it and find out.

Through the middle of the cigar, the flavors were just okay. They were unremarkable and unmemorable. Plus, the Powstanie Wojtek War Bear had an uneven burn that I had to correct.

Final Thoughts

After smoking the Pospiech Powstanie Wojtek War Bear 2021 for around 75 minutes, I was unimpressed. The flavors were bland and flat, and there was nothing that really stood out in a good way.

The first third had a bad burn and some canoeing. The final third also had an uneven burn. The War Bear's flavors did have some spice, but the dominant flavors were paper or cardboard. While this cigar didn't taste under-aged and green, it didn't taste… good.

While this cigar isn't as intimidating as it looks, it's also not as flavorful or as well constructed as it looks. The Pospiech Powstanie Wojtek War Bear 2021 earns a CigarScore 3.
