BLK WKS Studio, known for its boundary-pushing blends and bold aesthetics, proudly announces the release of its latest creation: the Avispa. This striking new cigar is the result of a unique collaboration with select retailers and represents a fusion of two of BLK WKS’ most iconic lines — the Killer Bee and the Hornet.
Crafted with a Nicaraguan filler, Ecuadorian binder, and a distinctive dual wrapper of Ecuadorian Habano and Candela, the Avispa is a visual and sensory standout. It delivers a bold, spice-forward profile with layers of complexity that aficionados have come to expect from BLK WKS.
“The Avispa is a Killer Bee & Hornet hybrid, utilizing different elements of each line to create one of the most unique offerings in the BLK WKS portfolio. I love experimenting with different Bee and Hornet variations. This cigar is bold, spice-forward, and very complex. It’s a perfect balance between strength and flavor.”
James Brown, creator of BLK WKS and owner at Oveja Negra.
Named after the Spanish word for wasp, the Avispa is more than just a new blend — it’s a testament to the power of creative partnerships. This collaboration has allowed BLK WKS to push the envelope even further, bringing a one-of-a-kind cigar to market that reflects a shared vision of innovation and craftsmanship.
“BLK WKS is all about trying new things and innovation. Our partners understand that and working together we created a one-of-a-kind cigar that is a great addition across the board.”
