The best black art I’ve ever tried and possibly the best whisky I’ve ever tried. So many flavors and so much going on.
Nose: Raisins, Honey, Strawberries, Raspberries, Jelly Beans, Coffee, Chocolate, Smoke, Caramel, Vanilla, Cherries, Mangoes, Peaches, Pineapples, Pepper, Plums, Flowers, Pears, Citrus, watermelon and green apple jolly ranchers, almonds, hazlenuts, papaya, oranges, coconuts, marzipan, passion fruit
Palate: Raisins, Sour Cherries, toffee, dark chocolate, pepper, honey, flowers, black cherries, prunes, Meats, walnuts, almonds, cashews, cinnamon, toasted barley, mocha, citrus, smoke, blackberries, currants
Finish: raisins, cinnamon, chocolate, cherries, toffee, pepper, apricots, truffles, sultanas, burnt pineapples, mangoes, citrus, almond pastry, vanilla, strawberries, raspberries
From my guess, this was likely matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry, port, sauternes, red wine, white wine, and peated whisky casks.

@worldwhiskies95 i don’t know. I need to look it up. If I do, and I find it, will definitely open it up
@PBMichiganWolverine That's crazy how you haven't tried any yet. Do you have any bottles of black art?
Best whiskey I’ve tried is a praiseworthy statement. I’ve not had any of the Black Arts, but I’ve heard nothing but amazing things of it
