Dark Arts 8.5 Year Straight Rye Double Oaked Whiskey

Calling all rye whiskey aficionados! Dark Arts presents Dark Star, a limited-edition, cask-strength rye whiskey that's anything but ordinary. This isn't just a bottle; it's the culmination of a unique journey, born from bold experimentation and meticulous craftsmanship.

Imagine a rye whiskey unlike any other. Dark Star's story begins in 2015 with a high-rye mash bill (95% rye!) aged in undisclosed barrels. Despite setbacks, the remaining whiskey was rescued and re-barreled in 2019, spending its final years in select Zac Cooperage #4 Char barrels. This double-oaking process coaxed out remarkable flavors, culminating in a masterpiece after 8.5 years.

Bottled at cask strength (a potent 104 proof!), Dark Star is a flavor explosion waiting to be unleashed. With only 1,050 bottles produced from the surviving barrels, this is a rye whiskey for the collector and the connoisseur alike. Each sip is a testament to Dark Arts' dedication to pushing boundaries and creating exceptional spirits.
