Compass Box The Peat Monster – 70cl
Compass Box was founded in 2000 by John Glaser in London — bringing a wine-world approach to Scotch whisky: radical transparency about ingredients, non-chill filtration, natural colour, and a willingness to blend grain and malt in new ways. Now one of the most respected blending houses in the world. The Peat Monster is Compass Box's boldly peated blended malt — unashamedly embracing smoke and maritime character from Islay and other peated components while maintaining the characteristic Compass Box balance and quality. Non-chill filtered, natural colour. Available to buy online in Singapore from The Liquid Collection.
