Dark Arts Whiskey House has crafted a truly unique rye that breaks away from tradition to offer something beautifully complex and earthy. This seven year rye undergoes a unique alchemical process, resting in both Madeira and Armagnac casks to balance sweet orchard fruits with a savory, resinous depth. Unlike typical heavy blends, this spirit focuses on herbal and pine notes that make it a perfect companion for quiet moments of relaxation. It is a masterclass in blending that shows why Master Blender Macaulay Minton is considered a true artist in the whiskey world.
