Compass Box Celestial

The Compass Box Celestial is the smokiest and final bottling in The Extinct Blends series, which comprises a total of four different releases. The blended whisky consists of a Blended Scotch Parcel (18.2%), Ardbeg Single Malt (16.9%), Port Dundas Single Grain (15.5%), Cameronbridge Single Grain (13.2%), Pulteney Single Malt (14.8%), Caol Ila Single Malt (11.5%), Highland Malt Blend (4.5%), Glen Elgin Single Malt (3.3%), Blended Malt Parcel (2.1%). The proportions are carefully married together and provide many flavour impressions, ranging from smoky and complex to fruity and spicy. The independent bottler Compass Box confidently calls itself a 'whisky maker' and sees itself more as a whisky artist than a producer. John Glaser and his team are always trying to break new ground when it comes to maturation and blending. The production process is passed on to the customer as transparently as possible.
