Compass Box Myths & Legends II Single Malt Whisky 750 mL
Scotch whisky has a rich array of stories, myths and legends. However, what start as myths can become received wisdom, influencing our understanding and restricting our enjoyment. They've chosen to scrutinise three misleading beliefs concerning Scotch in this series they call Myths & Legends.
Myth & Legends II blends together malt whiskies of different ages from a single Speyside distillery. In addition to the aromas of tropical fruits and butterscotch you will also discover subtle savoury notes and spiciness.

Myth & Legends II blends together malt whiskies of different ages from a single Speyside distillery. In addition to the aromas of tropical fruits and butterscotch you will also discover subtle savoury notes and spiciness. This distinctive character has nothing to do with "Speyside" ; process decisions made at the distillery, the effects of maturation, and their own choices regarding the final blend are the most significant factors. Clues to a whisky's flavour lie in the glass, not the Distillery's region.
This is the second of three playful and thought-provoking whiskies. They hope you'll take the opportunity to try the full Myth & legends series before reflecting on - and guarding against - the dangerous siren that is "received wisdom."
