The Whisky Crimson Cask of Compass Box presents itself as a refined blend, an expression of the skilled craftsmanship typical of the famous London distillery. Born from the balanced combination of selected malts and grain whisky, this blend ages in extraordinary Oloroso sherry casks, also known as the "crimson cask," which give it unique character and complexity.
This British whisky stands out for its intense crimson hue, preceded by pleasant aromas of dried fruit, sweet spices, raisins, and light earthy hints of oak. On the palate, it is enveloping, with soft notes of toffee, dark chocolate, and a pleasant spicy persistence that makes it elegant yet never trivial.
The Crimson Cask perfectly embodies the innovative and multicultural soul of the London area, transporting the taster on a sensory journey full of nuances. Excellent as a whisky for contemplation or paired with chocolate desserts and aged cheeses, it represents a contemporary and sophisticated interpretation of a classic blend.
