Redefining Grain Whisky with a Peated Twist
 
Compass Box's Experimental Grain Whisky challenges traditional perceptions by blending unique and intriguing elements into a singular expression. This grain whisky, intriguingly only a pot still away from being classified as a single malt, is made entirely from malted barley and showcases the innovative spirit of Loch Lomond Distillery's peated, Coffey-distilled production.
 
A Distinctive Blend with a Smoky Profile
 
This blend stands as the adventurous counterpart to Compass Box's Hedonism, diverging with its distinct smoky character derived from peated grain whisky. The smoky notes are herbal and moss-like, creating a clinging aroma that sets it apart from typical grain whiskies. This experimental spirit is crafted under the guidance of Lead Whiskymaker James Saxon, ensuring a product that is both bold and meticulously balanced.
 
Tasting Notes
 
Nose: The aroma introduces a fascinating blend of fudge, vanilla, and set honey from Cameronbridge and North British grains, interwoven with the distinct peat smoke from Loch Lomond that carries hints of pine forests and patchouli oil.
Palate: The palate is a complex layering of traditional grain whisky flavors enhanced by the unconventional peaty notes. The result is a rich tapestry of flavors that challenge and delight with each sip.
Finish: The finish continues the theme of innovation, leaving a lingering impression of herbal smokiness combined with the sweetness of honey and the earthiness of forest notes.
