Awarded a Double Gold Medal at the 2024 San Franciso World Spirits Competition, Darks Arts Whiskey House Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in French Oak Staves is a masterful blend that demonstrates the brand's masterful whiskey craftsmanship. Each Dark Arts expression is unique, produced in a small batch yielding less than 750 bottles. This small batch is crafted from a blend of 6-8-year-old bourbons consisting of 60% Corn, 36% Rye, 4% malted barley, finished in French oak staves. Bottled at 108-proof, the nose opens with an enticing aroma of spied caramel, ripe red fruits, and toasted oak. The palate reveals a harmonious blend of caramel, vanilla, and dried fruit, accented by the unique influence of French oak, which imparts subtle notes of spice and nuttiness. The finish is long and warming, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and depth.
