Compass Box No Name 2 Scotch Whisky 48.9% Alcohol – 700ml

While the first No Name release from Compass Box was its peatiest whisky to date, No Name 2 is a somewhat more refined expression, mirrored by the slightly more colourful bottle decoration. Nose: Loads of smoky peat aromas, balanced by dried cherry and prune sweetness, a sweet floral note and a touch of bonfire smoke with a waxy citrus peel. Palate: Sweet and smoky intertwine with smoked meats, a hint of salt, oak char and dried fruit notes, with fresh, ripe cherries. Finish: Rock salt and maritime smoke with a dash of red fruit and a dry oaky finish.
