Crafted as a whimsical and heartfelt response to the global cancellation of whisky festivals in 2020, Compass Box's 'This is Not a Festival Whisky' was designed to bring the vibrant, communal spirit of those events directly to enthusiasts at home. This limited-edition blended malt Scotch whisky captures the essence of celebration, blending bright, fruit-forward single malts with richer, waxier, and subtly spiced components. It stands as a testament to the resilience of the whisky community and Compass Box's signature blending artistry, offering a complex, aromatic, and deeply engaging sensory experience that unites whisky lovers from afar.
🍾 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.
