Compass Box Double Single 2017 Release 70cl, 46%

Description

Compass Box Double Single 2017 Release 70cl, 46% is a limited edition blended Scotch whisky from Compass Box, created with a deliberately simple but highly precise recipe. Instead of using many components, this release combines just one single malt whisky with one single grain whisky, giving the bottle its “Double Single” identity. Compass Box confirms the whiskies come from Glen Elgin and Girvan, with the 2017 release bottled in March 2017.

This release offers a polished and elegant profile built around apple, vanilla, malt, cinnamon, honeyed sweetness, soft caramel and gentle oak. The Whisky Exchange lists the composition as 72% 19 year old Glen Elgin single malt, with the remainder from an older parcel of Girvan single grain whisky.

Bottled at 46%, natural colour and not chill filtered, Compass Box Double Single 2017 has excellent texture and clarity. With only 5,838 bottles released worldwide and the original presentation box shown in the supplied product image, this is a strong bottle for both drinking and collecting.
