Compass Box Extinct Blends Quartet - Delos Blended Scotch Whisky

Delos transforms the blueprints for Compass Boxes own Extinct Blend, Asyla. All American oak, an older character, and a sumptuous balance of malt and grain whiskies. First created in 2001, Asyla was the ethereally beautiful cornerstone of Compass Boxes core range until its retirement in 2018. With Delos the focus is on capturing Asyla's vibrancy and soothing sweetness, turning to older stocks to achieve this.

Tasting Notes:

A sweet succulence that breaks upon the nose in soft waves: ripe pear, pineapple, orange oil and vanilla cream. A medley of fruit tarts and white chocolate soothe the palate, while the maturity of the component whiskies gradually builds to reveal guava, heather honey and chai spices.
