Description
Smoking secrets of Caol Ila & Co. revealed:
Compass Box with new limited edition
In the world of peated Scotch malt whiskies, smoke intensity tends to dominate the debate. What is often overlooked is the peated malts' inherent sweetness, hidden behind campfires.
Over the years, Compass Box has experimented with maturing peated whiskies in sherry and wine casks. With Secrets of Smoke, the whisky makers have succeeded in using these casks to break down the smoky shell and release the surprising sweetness at the core of peated whiskies.
Barrels flavored with Palo Cortado Sherry emphasize the toffee-apple characteristics of the Caol Ila malt whisky. Refill Red Wine Barrels lure bright cherry notes from the depths of The Peat Monster, Compass Box's own blend of Islay malts. And Marsala Barriques bring the aromas of oat bars with blueberries to the surface of Laphroaig whisky.
Anyone who wants to uncover smoking secrets at such a high level can choose from a total of 9,792 limited edition bottles.
