Dark Arts Whiskey House 9 year old Ripple Rye II Maple Syrup Barrel & Amburana Oak Stave Finished, 54.7%

This Indiana-sourced 95% rye, 5% malted barley weaves prickly rye spice and very prominent cinnamon notes with maple syrup sweetness, creating a whiskey perfect for a winter’s night dram. On the nose, cinnamon and maple ring loud and clear, with muted mint and sweet herbs providing depth. The sip is maple syrup forward with charred oak, toasted cinnamon, and apple cider. On the finish, the rye spice shines, fading slowly into cinnamon stick and peppercorn.
