✨ Technical Specifications
The Juveniles Limited Edition Blended Malt is a celebrated collaboration between Compass Box founder John Glaser and Tim Johnston, the proprietor of the legendary Juveniles Bistrot à Vins in Paris. Born from a shared philosophy that great drinks should be thoroughly enjoyable and free from pretension, this expression is crafted to mirror the bright, fresh, and convivial spirit of the Parisian wine bistro. The blend artfully combines single malt whiskies from distilleries such as Strathmill, Balmenach, and Clynelish, aged in a mix of sherry casks and refill hogsheads. This selection yields a Scotch of remarkable texture, characterized by notes of pear, green apple, herbal undertones, and a delicate honeyed sweetness, completely eschewing peat smoke in favor of vibrant fruitiness.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 2000 by visionary blender John Glaser, Compass Box is an independent boutique Scotch whiskymaking house dedicated to reimagining the traditions of blending. Operating out of its blending studio in Richmond, London, with warehouse maturation bases in Scotland, the firm approaches Scotch with the exacting philosophy of an artisan winemaker. Rather than relying on standard industrial recipes, Compass Box sources premier malt and grain distillates across Scotland, aging them in bespoke cooperage using toasted virgin French and American oak to highlight distinct structural and aromatic elements. Known for its staunch campaign for radical transparency, Compass Box crafts expressive, non-chill-filtered bottlings free of artificial coloring. Celebrated benchmark releases include the orchard-fruit-forward Orchard House, the heavily peated Blended Malt The Peat Monster, the pioneering grain blend Hedonism, and intricate limited releases such as The Extinct Blends Quartet and Artist Blend.
