Compass Box Myths & Legends I Blended Scotch Whisky
Out of stock
The first bottling in Compass Box's new Myths & Legends series, a series that seeks to explore and challenge the 'myths and legends' that are often perceived as the rules of Scotch whisky. This first bottling looks at how the character of a specific distillery's whisky changes through blending various casks.
Bottled at 46% abv, this is a vatting of several parcels of Balblair Highland whisky. This is a whisky full of fragrance with a more rounded complexity, one that provides a richer understanding of what this distillery can produce.
4394 bottles of this expression have been released and this whisky is said to have a 'malty and creamy character' which 'develops into notes of ripe orchard fruits and delicate oak'.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with sunlit honey highlights.
Nose
Fragrant, creamy and malty on the nose, with a rounded depth that opens to ripe orchard fruits—pear and apple—woven with delicate oak. Subtle sherry-cask hints add a soft, lingering sweetness and polish.
Palate
A silky, malt-driven palate with creamy texture and a rounded sweetness. Its malty, creamy character unfolds into ripe orchard fruits—pear and apple—woven with delicate oak and a whisper of vanilla. Elegant and refined, with a subtle spice lift and a lingering, softly creamy finish.
Finish
Long, creamy finish with malted sweetness lingering, blossoming into ripe orchard fruits—apple and pear—while delicate oak threads through. A final whisper of spice and velvety warmth lingers, refined and persistent.
