The Enlightment was the era of intellectual freedom. One can argue that nowadays, with the incredible flow of information accessible we should be even more free intellectually, but it feels that it is the complete opposite. Having said that, to be free is Compass Box ultimate goal in whisky. Enlightment is their attempt to honour wisdom of whisky, and of course they have revealed everything in this blend as they always do. Bottled at 46%abv, this is made of Clynelish, Glentauchers, Balblair & Mortlach. On the nose, super fruity. Green grapes, green apples. Honey, pears and peaches. Impalpable sugar and a Sharpie marker. After a couple of sips, it gave me red apples with toffee. Cocoa and Fanta cola. On the palate, it is still very fruity. Grapefruit, gooseberries, a little spicy. It is a rich and elegant sugary water. Easy to enjoy. Aftertaste is clearly the best part. Metallic, sulphuric, red chilli. A beautiful spiciness. It is a long but somehow muted or ghostly finish. Overall, this is one fancy whisky, with a lovely label and the creamy profile that most Compass Box have makes this blend a truly joyful dram. I would have loved for it to have a slight peatiness to make this even better. A honest 88 over 100 is a proper score for this dram.
