Dark Arts 250 Years of Spirit America's 250th Anniversary Bottle - 5x Blend

Nose: Buttery toffee opens the glass, followed by toasted pecan, dark chocolate, and seasoned oak. Hints of caramelized sugar and roasted nuts add richness beneath the surface.

Palate: Bold oak and roasted hazelnut lead the way before unfolding into freshly ground espresso, dark confectionary sweetness, and gentle spice. The texture is rich and coating, carrying the whiskey with weight and balance.

Finish: Baking spice and lingering oak carry through the finish, while tobacco leaf and roasted coffee slowly emerge. Dry, rich, and enduring, the finish leaves a lasting impression that invites another pour.

Created as a tribute to 250 years of American ingenuity, craftsmanship, and transformation, this limited release brings together five distinct whiskeys, each carrying its own character, history, and sense of place. Rather than highlight a single cask or finish, the 5X Blend is built around composition, uniting each component into one complete expression.

At 11 years old and bottled at 128.28 proof, this release is both commanding and refined. Careful blending creates a whiskey with depth, structure, tradition, and complexity, while maintaining the bold character that defines Dark Arts.
