The Black Works Studio Rorschach Sumatra asks you what you see in the smoke clouds.

An angry bear?

Your Uncle Junior telling you that you never had the makings of a varsity athlete?

Whatever you see, you’ll love the flavors of this well-crafted tobacco roll.

The Sumatra version builds on the success of the original Black Works Studio Rorschach blend. It was a Nicaraguan stick with an Ecuador Habano that smoked up spicy and earthy. In this production run, James Brown and his Black Works team found that a genuine Sumatra wrapper was the thing to use.

Now, lots of Sumatra-seed leaf is grown in Ecuador these days – and there’s nothing wrong with that. The weather is ideal for cigar wrapper cultivation. But for the original flavors that sparked the world’s interest in this particular kind of tobacco, you’ve got to go to the soil that birthed the craze: Indonesia. There, the volcanic sediment creates fields that are rich with the minerals needed to allow plants to grow healthy, strong, and flavorful.

And so it is with the cover leaf for the Black Works Studio Rorschach Sumatra cigar.

Inside, you get a tasty Nicaraguan long-filler blend with a Nicaraguan habano binder. The aim was to somewhat brighten the blend and offer something more subtle and complex.

As Mr. Brown said, “The new Sumatran version is a lighter profile highlighting Jalapa tobacco.”

As for the taste, it offers “layers of soft cedar, cinnamon, and mild pepper” to “create a complex profile with a long creamy finish.”

This is a less dark, but somehow more mysterious side of the Rorschach blend. What will you find as you contemplate each draw? The answers lie within, of course.
