It’s 4/20 and we are “weeding” out the latest release from Dark Arts Whiskey House! In this episode of Your Bourbon Journey, Wayne and Rebecca dive into the Blunt Blend Batch 3, affectionately known as “The Dank Arts.”
This isn’t your average rye. This is an 8-year-old Indiana Rye (likely MGP) that has undergone a sophisticated double-finish in both Madeira and Armagnac casks. Bottled at a stout 113.8 proof, this whiskey promises a complex journey from a fruit-forward nose to a surprising “chocolate” finish that left us questioning if we were actually eating a candy bar!
In this video, we explore:
- The unique “Dank Arts” branding and 4/20 inspiration.
- The impact of the Madeira and Armagnac double-finish on a high-rye mash bill.
- Full tasting notes: Discover why Wayne calls this a “Top 5 Rye” of all time.
- A breakdown of the viscosity (those legs!) and the “chocolate pop” on the palate.
- Our experience ordering online from Dark Arts—is the shipping worth the cost?
Whether you’re a “rye guy” or usually stick to bourbon, this complex, viscous, and spicy “Blunt Blend” might just be your new favorite pour. Stick around for the end where we discuss upcoming cigar pairings and a “special” summer report!
