Producer Description
"Secrets of Smoke takes you beyond the smoke screen. With this whisky we uncover the sometimes surprising inherent sweetness of peated malts. Take some time to get through the smoke. The longer you sit with it you’ll become accustomed to it as the veil of smoke drops, the sweet side shines through."
"For Secrets of Smoke, we allow those wine casks to crack the smoky outer shell and release the unexpected sweetness at the core of peated whiskies. Palo Cortado sherry-seasoned butts enhancing the toffee apple qualities of malt whisky from the Caol Ila Distillery. Refill red wine barrels tempt bright cherry notes from the depths of The Peat Monster, our own assemblage of Islay malts. And those Marsala barriques bring blueberry flapjack flavours to the surface of malt whisky from the Laphroaig Distillery."

Compass Box Crimson Casks
$121.99
Crimson Casks is a new release that has been added to Compass Box's core range of Blended Scotch Whisky. Like the Glasgow Blend, Crimson Casks focus is on Sherry Casks. Unlike the Glasgow Blend, it is unpeated. The blend features a decent portion of single Malt from excellent Glen Moray Distillery (matured first in ex-red wine casks) as well as a "Distillery Near The Town of Aberlour" with much of the whisky being at least partially matured in first-fill Oloroso Sherry-seasoned butts made from American Oak. The resulting blend is Bottled at 46% ABV.
Producer Description
"We work with our partner in Jerez, taking American oak butts and precisely seasoning them with Oloroso sherry for a very particular wood interaction that creates a spiciness and generous intensity. We blend these sherry-influenced parcels with red wine-influenced whisky from The Glen Moray Distillery and our Highland Malt Blend in custom oak French barrels. Crimson Casks delivers notes of chocolate fudge cake and plum jam, followed by rich cherry, toffee and oak. These rich flavours are undercut by clove and cardamom."
