Dark Arts Blunt Blend Whiskey
American whiskey doesn't often take a detour through Armagnac and Madeira casks, and that finish is what sets this Indiana whiskey apart. Seven years of barrel time built the frame; the second maturation filled in the corners, adding a wine-cask sweetness that sits comfortably alongside the grain.
Dark fruit leads, stewed rather than fresh, with brown sugar close behind. Rye spice cuts through the sweetness and keeps things from turning syrupy, while vanilla softens the edges. Tobacco and oak settle in at the end and hang around a while.
Bottled at cask strength, 112.8 proof (56.4% ABV), so it drinks rich and full without any thinning. A few drops of dilution open up the fruit if you want it gentler, though it holds together fine straight from the 750 mL bottle. An easy pick for anyone who likes a sweeter whiskey with real weight behind it.
