Compass Box – Stranger & Stranger Scotch Whisky 46% 700ml

Imported from Scotland, UK.
Compass Box has released a pair of limited edition expressions including a ‘spirit drink’ known as Stranger & Stranger, a blend containing 1% grain spirit aged for 18 months.
The remaining 99% of the blend is comprised of 17 to 22-year-old single malts from Glenlossie, Glen Elgin and Linkwood distilleries.
Because the grain spirit is under three years old, Stranger & Stranger cannot legally be classified as Scotch, which has lead Compose Box to refer to the blend as the ‘“not-technically-a-whisky” whisky’.
The grain spirit originates from Girvan distillery and was previously used by Compass Box to season freshly made casks.
Stranger & Stranger is named after the package design firm that creates Compass Box’s distinctive labels, which celebrates the 10th anniversary of its partnership with the whisky maker this year.
Bottled at 46% abv, the spirit drink is said to contain notes of ‘custard and dark sugars, fresh apple and an appealing herbal character’.
