A 3 Year Blended Malt for $300? Don't let the age statement fool you! Scotch regulations prohibit producers from sharing the ages of older whisky components in their blends and this release from the rouge, independent blender Compass Box pokes fun at that. The blend contains only 0.4% three year old malt whisky from Clynelish, near the village of Brora; the rest is 90.3% malt whisky from the same distillery of "unstated but considerably older age" and 9.

Tasting Notes

"Find vanilla cream soda on the nose, with orange peel and spice. The palate is complex and layered, with toffee, more citrus and spice, as well as sweeter, ripe fruits, like peaches, apricots, and apples. A big, robust finish offers more vanilla creaminess along with a burst of fruits, as raspberries enter the equation, along with tingling spice, and a touch of peat and smoke. Unique and lovely."
