Compass Box
launch Compass Box Menagerie, a limited
edition Blended malt containing Scotch
single malt whiskies from Mortlach,
Deanston, Laphroaig and Glen Elgin
distilleries, combined with Compass
Box’s Highland Malt Blend.
 The creative whisky makers at Compass
Box has launched their latest limited
edition release, Compass Box Menagerie,
a Blended malt which they say explores
Scotch whisky’s wilder side.
The Compass Box Menagerie is a blend of
Scotch single malts from Mortlach
Distillery, Deanston Distillery,
Laphroaig Distillery and Glen Elgin
Distillery, combined with Compass Box’s
Highland Malt Blend.
Compass Box lead Whiskymaker James Saxon
commented on the latest creation saying:
"Scotch whisky has a huge variety of
flavour profiles – when whiskymaking, we
pay attention to those parcels that
deviate slightly from fruity, floral and
spicy - ones that taste that little bit
wilder than others. And it is these
strange and beautiful creatures that we
have brought together to create our
Menagerie."
Menagerie is described as having a
complex aroma of baking spices, leather,
tar and musky fruits. The palate is
engagingly lush with even more fruit,
while oily smoke and forest floor notes
linger in the finish. Combine Menagerie
with air-dried beef – bresaola or
biltong are terrific, and both will
bring the whisky’s layers of spicy
sweetness into focus.
Compass Box Menagerie has been bottled
at 46% ABV and as you would expect from
Compass Box it is naturally coloured and
non chill-filtered. A limited edition
release of 7,741 bottles with RRP of £90
for the 70cl bottle. ABV: 46% it is
currently available while stocks last from
specialist online whisky retailers
such as
