New: Compass Box Stranger & Stranger // Signatory 30th Anniversary // WhiskySanta

Compass Box Stranger & Stranger

A new blended malt with 1% non-Scotch whisky, that’s Compass Box Stranger & Stranger, a limited edition to celebrate ten years of collaborations with the package design company Stranger & Stranger.

The blended malt contains a one year old grain spirit they used to season some experimental barrels. It is said to contain intense wood spice and exotic shades of vanilla. Bottled at 46% ABV, with 4802 bottles available.

Compass Box Peat Monster

Compass Box will also launch a new version of its Peat Monster. Some time ago I already mentioned the fact that the Peat Monster recipe would be updated as some of the key components were too hard to get. It will be the same style as before but with a slightly different character, hence also a new label.

Signatory 30th Anniversary
