Last weekend, my wife and I did a distillery tour. Part of the tour was the chance to “fill our own bottle” right from the barrel.

We got this little gem straight from the source.

My nightcap last night. I had a taster of this several weeks ago at my local watering hold and bought a bottle knowing it would probably sell out PDQ (which it did). I had a pour right away, but put it aside as I really needed to kill a bunch of bottles with only a pour left before I could justify having yet another open bottle floating about.

I had forgotten how lovely a pour this is in that time. I've never been good at making tasting notes, but I can say this is an easy drinker at 100 proof with a bunch of subtle complexity that lingers on the palate for a bit.

It's not the first that I've had from Dark Arts, but easily my favorite of the few I've had from them.

I don’t mind high proof hazmat bottles but most of the best bottles I’ve had are around 100-110 proof. Tasting notes really shine in this range. While more intense in the higher proof bottles, the subtleties and nuanced notes are often lost to burned out palate and nosing
