Compass Box Great King Street – Artists Blend – 70cl

Scotch Whisky – Blend

Despite its reputation as a somewhat traditional spirit, Scotch whisky offers incredible diversity of flavour, with single malts and blends ranging from elegant, floral expressions to rich, fruity and chocolatey drams.

This fruity, versatile blended Scotch from the whisky makers at Compass Box is a tribute to the 19th century blenders who combined malt and grain whiskies to create robust, complex and flavoursome spirits. The high malt content in Great King Street Artist’s Blend (around 55%) makes this a versatile whisky that’s perfect enjoyed neat or in a cocktail.

Serving Suggestions: Great King Street Artist’s Blend makes a perfect base for most cocktails. Try it in a Mamie Taylor by pouring a measure into a Highball glass with ice, and topping with ginger beer and a squeeze of fresh lime.

Tasting Notes

Invitingly malty and fruity on the nose with aromas of baked apples, orange zest, vanilla sponge and golden syrup. The flavours develop into orchard fruit compote delicately spiced with cinnamon and clove, warm apple pie, toasted oak and a raisin-studded malt loaf.
