Compass Box Flaming Heart Blended Scotch Whisky (1.5 Litre Magnum)
In stock
First released in 2006, Flaming Heart was the first Whisky to combine the rich, complex spice of Scotch aged in new French oak with the evocative peat-fired smoke of Islay malt. It created a genre-defying style that was smouldering, spicy and complex.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery edges and a warm honey-gold glow.
Nose
Opulent spice from new French oak threads through smoky Islay peat, with vanilla, toffee and cocoa in its wake. Peat-tinged fruit, a hint of leather and burnt sugar mingle with citrus zest, yielding a warm, confident aroma that promises depth, complexity and lingering smoke.
Palate
Smoky, peppery and richly spiced on the palate, Flaming Heart blends new French oak sweetness with Islay peat. Vanilla bean, cinnamon and dark cacao mingle with caramelized fruit as coastal smoke and iodine weave through. Full-bodied and velvety, the 48.9% ABV lends warmth and a long, balanced finish that remains in harmony with the whisky’s aromatic fire.
Finish
Long, smoldering finish that lingers with peat and spice. Peaty warmth tapers to toasted French oak, while vanilla and dark chocolate deepen the sweetness. A coastal, smoky echo remains, fading slowly into a refined, resinous oak kiss.
