The Myths & Legends limited edition series contains three different bottlings that seek to challenge assumptions, biases, and prejudices concerning blending scotch and it's single malt counterparts. The Myths & Legends I blends two parcels from the same Northern Highland distillery. The younger parcel was malty and citrusy, the older was creamier with a ripe fruit character. The result of blending is a malty and creamy character that develops into notes of ripe orchard fruits and delicate oak.

Compass Box Description

It may surprise some, but blending is as crucial to the creation of single malts as it is to blended whisky. Myths & Legends I highlights the extent to which individual casks are often unreliable authorities for the style of whisky made at a distillery; it is by blending casks together that a fuller picture of distillery character can emerge.

Two parcels of malt whisky from the same Northern Highland distillery tasted markedly different: the younger parcel was malty and citrusy, the older one much creamier with a ripe fruit character. Two distinct personalities but from the one distillery.

By combining these two parcels we have created a whisky full of fragrance with a more rounded complexity, one that providesa richer understanding of what this distillery can produce.
