Black Works Studio Announces The Five Temples – Seven Star Fist of Shaolin

October 21, 2025 By Matthew Tabacco

Black Works Studio (BLK WKS) is releasing The Five Temples – Seven Star Fist of Shaolin, a new limited-edition collection. The Five Temples is a series of specialty cigars handmade at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Estelí, Nicaragua. The collection will begin shipping next week to select retailers.

This release was offered as a pre-order to retailers who attended PCA 2025 in New Orleans.

“This collection is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I’ve been rolling various blends in this pyramid size for the last twelve years for myself. It’s finally time to do a production release. The vibe I wanted was an old-school Kung Fu movie, and The Five Temples – Seven Star Fist of Shaolin definitely has that feel. The concept was to create a collection that not only introduces a new vitola for the Bees & Hornets, but also showcases different wrappers. Each cigar is a unique representation of the blends, and the pyramid shape symbolizes the form of a Shaolin temple. The icing on top of all that is the two new versions of the Shaolin. Overall, I think this is the most exciting collection we’ve done for BLK WKS. For anyone who’s a fan of the Killer Bee and Green Hornet, this is a must-have!” — James Brown, creator of BLTC and partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra
