BLK WKS Studios Rorschach Sumatra

Psychology and cigars have gone hand in hand since the dawn of the psychological practice itself in the late 1800s. In the modern era, the two have crossed paths once again, taking shape through the Rorschach cigar by Black Works Studio (BLK WKS), a gritty project that features abstract Rorschach-style artwork (we swear it's a butterfly in Gotham City) throughout its clever design.

Building on the 2015 original Rorschach cigar, BLK WKS now showcases the Sumatra-wrapped sequel: Rorschach Sumatra. While Black Works often features bold, hearty smoking experiences, the Rorschach Sumatra pulls back on intensity, leaning on the softer characteristics that Sumatra leaf can afford. The cigar swaps the Ecuadorian Habano wrapper of the original Rorschach for an authentic Indonesian Sumatra wrapper (differing from the Ecuadorian origins of most Sumatra cigars today). This flavorful leaf surrounds a Nicaraguan Habano binder and all-Nicaraguan filler, focusing on the sweet tendencies of the country's Jalapa region.

All told, the Black Works Studio Rorschach Sumatra cigar is delicate in profile, bringing a medium-bodied profile of fresh-cut cedar, white pepper, sweet tea, cinnamon, and cream through the finish.
