140.36 proof. 16 years. Hazmat. Barrel 83H. Dark Arts — a 16-year cask strength Kentucky straight bourbon at Hazmat-tier proof (140+), from the Dark Arts independent bottling program that presents long-aged sourced bourbon at natural barrel proof.
Dark Arts is an independent bottler program focused on exceptional aged Kentucky bourbon at cask strength, with the program name reflecting the craft and mystery involved in selecting barrels that have developed extraordinary character over extended aging. The Hazmat designation (140+ proof / 70%+ ABV) identifies Barrel 83H as requiring special handling under DOT shipping regulations — a proof milestone shared by a small number of extreme cask strength expressions in the catalog.
At 16 years, Barrel 83H is among the older expressions in the Dark Arts lineup, adding meaningful oak integration and dried fruit complexity to the high-concentration profile. The companion Barrel 2H (15yr, 136.8 proof) also in stock provides a one-year age comparison within the same program.
