PRESS RELEASE
November 10, 2026 — Black Works Studio (BLK WKS) is pleased to announce the release of SHAOLIN 36TH CHAMBER; handcrafted at Fabrica Oveja Negra in Esteli, Nicaragua.
SHAOLIN 36TH CHAMBER is a new Limited Edition that will begin shipping to select retailers later this month.
For centuries, Shaolin monks lived lives of discipline—mastering mind, body, and spirit. Their training was divided into 35 chambers, each one designed to refine skill through repetition, precision, and control.
For generations, 35 chambers defined the path tomastery.
Then one challenged the order, creating the 36th Chamber - not for the chosen few, but for the people. It was rebellion with a purpose.
BLK WKS Shaolin 36th Chamber - Crafted against the grain, deliberately and unapologetically—it breaks from convention not to discard tradition, but to expand it.
“The Shaolin 36th Chamber is a new, bolder take on the original Shaolin. The double Habanowrapper brings a bit more spice to the table and blends perfectly with a unique profile of herbal tea, citrus and bread notes. The Candela accents add an additional layer of complexity to this classic profile," says James Brown, creator of BLTC and partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra.
