Meet the Maker
I am Seamus (SHAY-mus) Black, the creator of Emporium Black’s Nightshade Truffles. I started this business in 2019 at age 53. I am a retired chef and chocolatier as well as an artist and plant lover. My original idea behind these nightshade truffles stems from my years living on reservations and being heavily involved with the Native American Church (peyote). During that time I participated in many meetings and ceremonies, living as part of that community. Once I returned to the culture I was originally raised in, I was looking for a way to help non-Native Americans make similar connections with plants as well as giving these plants back to the people by helping to bring them back out of the shadows. My journey into this field spans over three decades, during which I also delved into the study of Eastern philosophy. I dedicated a significant portion of my life to exploring Vipassana meditation, which greatly contributed to my understanding of the mind-body connection.
Not only is Emporium Black a testament to my diverse experiences and expertise, but it is also an LGBTQI owned business. As a transgender person, I made the decision to transition when I turned fifty, and I am fiercely proud to be a visible advocate for transgender rights and acceptance.
In addition to my role as a business owner and advocate, I am also a devoted parent to two teenagers who bring immense joy to my life. They are without a doubt the light of my life, the source of endless inspiration, and the best thing that has ever happened to me. Emporium Black is a reflection of my multifaceted identity and my unwavering commitment to promoting inclusivity, self-discovery, and love in all its forms.
What People Are Saying About Emporium Black
“Every truffle that I got to sample has its own unique aroma and flavor; I honestly found each one to be irresistible in its own way. I have had a couple of very profound experiences with your truffles, and even if I don't have a miraculous epiphany the effects are almost unexplainable in the way they relax and calm a restless mind and spirit. I can slow down my chaotic tornado of thoughts and focus on what I need and how to improve myself and my relationships to others. Always absolutely positive, it's amazing.”

“I LOVE your exquisite truffles. My headspace changes even having them in the room. I experience a deep, grounded calm I associate with my young and authentic self and the spaciousness that marked my pre-internet consciousness. I’m more available and grounded to myself. I have been enjoying them during these still spring evenings resplendent with young leaves and changing light. I can feel the particles suspended in the air. Just beautiful. Thank you so much.”
- Gabrielle C.
“Hey! I just wanted to say I tried a half truffle for the first time the other day, the Forest Faerie Nightshade Truffle, and it was really amazing. I have experienced all kinds of mind-altering substances but this was different. Something clicked. And something spoke to me. I don't know how to explain it, but a new door was opened. I feel calm, peace, love, at one with myself. Also just feeling everything very strongly. All beautiful things. Wondrous to be alive. Thank you!”
