Compass Box Whisky Blended Malt Crimson Cask 750ml

A Bold New Chapter from Scotland's Most Creative Blender

Compass Box has long been the maverick of the Scotch whisky world — a London-based blending house that approaches whisky with the curiosity of a chef and the precision of a craftsman. Crimson Cask is one of their most striking creations: a blended malt Scotch whisky finished in custom-made casks with heavily toasted, lightly charred French oak heads, imparting a deep crimson hue and a richness that sets it apart from anything else on the shelf.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Immediately inviting — ripe red berries, plum jam, and dark cherry lead the way, followed by warm cinnamon, clove, and a whisper of vanilla from the French oak influence.
• Palate: Lush and full-bodied, with layers of stewed fruit, toffee, and baking spice. The custom cask finishing adds a distinctive depth — think mulled wine meets Highland malt.
• Finish: Long and warming, with lingering dried fruit, toasted oak, and a gentle spice that fades gracefully into a sweet, woody close.
