One of the most exciting and limited products from Black Works Studio Cigars has just been released in a full, 24-count collector set! The company, in general, is known for constantly pushing boundaries and inventing new ways of blending art and edginess, and, in turn, the brand offers something really wonderful with its next limited-edition launch – The Five Temples – Seven Star Fist of Shaolin. This special collection, handcrafted at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Estelí, Nicaragua, is the outcome of James Brown’s passion and creativity. It is a series that combines elements of art, storytelling, and punchy taste in a way that could be a faithful adaptation of an ancient Kung Fu movie made in tobacco.
The idea for The Five Temples Cigars was conceived after a decade of success with Killer Bee Cigars. For very many years, he had been playing with the concept of pyramid-sized cigars. Still, he used it only once for a release that would show traits such as power, creativity, and self-control, which are also features of the Shaolin tradition. A cigar to represent each “temple” of them was what came to mind first, introducing one blend and one wrapper each, paying respect to the Black Works Studio Cigars style. In fact, the pyramid-shaped cigar was the one used to demonstrate the link between the Shaolin temples and the three aspects of the design, i.e. the practical, the symbolic, and the artistic, all in one neat and eye-catching way. At PCA 2025 in New Orleans, the pre-ordered first release was chosen, and it immediately became one of the most buzzed and talked-about releases of the year.
Presenting the Five Temples – Seven Star Fist of Shaolin Collector’s box; a collection of different blends in a masterfully displayed box. 24 styles of the best of BLK WKS Studio works, to be more specific, there are four each of the Killer Bee Sumatra, Killer Bee Connecticut, Killer Bee Connecticut Broadleaf, Hornet Pennsylvania Broadleaf, and Hornet San Andrés together with two Shaolin Candela/Maduro and two Habano/Maduro Belicoso units respectively. One can find in each blend a completely new expression of the combination of the different flavors — the list includes from delicious chocolates, leather, and different spices to smooth sugary tastes, toasted wood, and earth base notes. This set, which is a mix of aged tobaccos and exactly figured profiles, possesses such depth and breadth that it is capable of walking from one cigar to another.
Black Works Studio Five Temples Seven Star Fist of Shaolin Limited Edition Box is not a mere record of release – rather, it is something that holds sentimental value for collectors. One can see the impact and innovation that led BWS to make this collection vibrant in every single cigar in this set. To begin with, Killer Bee fans, then Green Hornet ones: this boxed pack of cigars is what they cannot do without. The number of such boxes is so extremely few that you cannot even talk about them; hence, once they have been taken, they will never be found again. Take part in one of the most beautiful collections of the year and study why BWS Studio is still at the forefront of the next generation of cigar-making.
