Our recent trip to Lexington, Kentucky couldn’t have been better timed! We stumbled upon the “soft opening” of the highly anticipated Dark Arts Whiskey House, and trust us, you’re going to want to hear about this.

Join us as we dive into an exclusive first look at their not-quite-open facility, which is already boasting an incredible vibe that’s sure to be a game-changer for Lexington’s nightlife. But the real magic happened during our tasting!

We sampled eight incredible offerings and, after much deliberation (and a few “oohs” and “aahs”), we narrowed it down to two showstoppers to bring home and review for you:

• Dark Arts Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished with Toasted Jupilles Fleur French Oak Staves
• Dark Arts Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Red Port and White Port Wine Casks
