- Description
- Compass Box's experimental blended grain combines bourbon barrels and recharred casks with an all-malt peated grain from Loch Lomond's Coffey still. The nose reveals ripe bananas, toffee, and vanilla; the palate develops toffee apple, aromatic peat, lichen, and oak spice alongside almond oil. At 46%, it bridges the gap between accessibility and complexity, offering unusual depth for a grain whisky. A curious choice for those intrigued by distillation methods and cask innovation.
