TASTING NOTES
Soft spice on the nose, some vanilla, oak, and a little grainy sweetness. Initially tastes of a soft creamy flavour, some vanilla and oak followed by spice, mixed peel and a touch of lemon. Quite long a well structured finish. Matured in first-fill American oak or rejuvenated American oak hogshead with more than half the Cameron Bridge and Cambus Lowland single grains over 24 years old.
BACKGROUND
Compass Box is a small independent specialist Scotch whisky company, devoted to making some of Scotland’s premier whiskies through the art of blending.
Similar to fine wine negociants, they choose individual casks of whiskies from different distilleries, which offer complementary sets of flavours, and then blend the whiskies in small batches. Their whiskies have unusual names and the labels are contemporary in style; it’s all part of their vision : take a contemporary approach to a traditional product. At the core of everything they create is a desire to bring out a purity of flavour, a richness, a drinking experience that will call people back to their glass; to Compass Box, this is the true measure of a whisky’s quality.
