Dark Arts Finished In Sauternes Wine Cask 9.5 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

This mature bourbon combines extended oak aging with a finishing period in Sauternes wine casks, known for their rich, honeyed dessert-wine character. The wine-cask influence can introduce layers of honey, ripe stone fruit, white grapes, and sweet caramel, complementing the bourbon’s underlying vanilla, oak, and spice. The result is a distinctive whiskey profile that balances traditional American bourbon richness with fruit-forward sweetness and a refined wine-cask influence. Exact bottling specifications for this 9.5-year expression have not been verified.
