Compass Box The Double Single 10th Anniversary Limited Edition Blended Scotch Whisky 53.3%
Compass Box The Double Single 10th Anniversary is a striking and impressive tribute to one of Compass Box’s most iconic whiskies. This limited edition release was created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Double Single and is composed with a focus on power, complexity, and balance. With a higher cask strength of 53.3%, it presents itself as a rich, intense whisky with depth and character, while maintaining an elegant and well-balanced profile.
In the glass, the whisky opens with a golden amber color and an aroma that unfolds in layers. First comes the natural sweetness of the grain, followed by creamy vanilla, honey, and ripe apples. Subtle floral notes and a light citrus freshness add brightness and energy to the aromatic experience. Complex undertones of spices, lightly toasted oak, and a hint of smoke from the selected single malts complete the first impression.
On the palate, it offers a full-bodied and velvety texture with an irresistible balance between sweetness and spice. The flavor brings honey, vanilla, and ripe pears, while a touch of citrus and dark caramel creates contrast. Behind these sweet elements lies a solid malt base and carefully chosen single malts that contribute depth, gentle smoke, and spiced notes. The higher alcohol strength ensures a warm and intense experience without being sharp, instead complex and inviting.
The finish is long-lasting and satisfying with persistent notes of spice, vanilla, and malt, elegantly merging with a slight dryness from the oak and a fine, dry conclusion. The overall impression of Compass Box The Double Single 10th Anniversary is a blended whisky that succeeds in combining robust character with refined balance – perfect for both collectors and whisky lovers seeking a powerful, complex, and memorable edition for their collection.
