✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Phenomenology by Compass Box is a compelling liquid study in sensory perception, named after the philosophical school of thought that focuses on conscious experience. Released as a limited-edition blended malt, creator John Glaser intentionally withheld the component recipe upon its initial launch, challenging drinkers to experience the whisky purely through their own senses without preconceived notions. This exquisite blend harmonizes single malts from celebrated distilleries including Glenlossie, Tamdhu, Talisker, Linkwood, and Clynelish. The result is a wonderfully complex and enigmatic spirit that layer by layer reveals notes of ripe orchard fruits, delicate oak spices, and a whisper of coastal peat smoke.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Compass Box er et banebrydende skotsk whisky blending-hus med base i London, grundlagt i 2000 af den amerikanske iværksætter og tidligere vinhandler John Glaser. Virksomheden fungerer som en uafhængig boutique-whiskymager frem for et traditionelt destilleri og udvælger enestående single malt- og grain-whiskyer fra hele Skotland. Her nytænkes blending-kunsten gennem kreativ fadmodning, skræddersyede franske egetræsfade og et kompromisløst fokus på gennemsigtighed. Compass Box har udfordret de traditionelle konventioner i whiskyverdenen med sin progressive filosofi og håndværksmæssige tilgang, hvilket har resulteret i en alsidig portefølje, der hyldes for sin levende innovation og kompleksitet. Blandt husets mest roste signaturaftapninger findes Hedonism, en skelsættende blended grain whisky, samt anerkendte blended malts som The Peat Monster og The Spice Tree.
