Compass Box Oak Cross Blended Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Manufacturer's Notes: Hello. You're holding a bottle of OAK CROSS, our malt Scotch whisky named for the special marrying casks we use to age the whiskies. Our coopers put new French oak heads into American oak casks so the whiskies aged in them share the best flavour traits of both. 

We are artisan whiskymakers. For us, making whisky is like making art. You begin with an idea, a vision. You form it using both traditional practice and your own inspiration. Then you share it with the world. This is what we do.

Through careful cask selection, artful blending of flavours, use of the highest quality oak and innovative thinking, we create delicious whiskies that combine richness, balance and purity of flavour.

I hope you enjoy our work.

Flavour: Notes of clove spice and vanila accent a sweet maltiness and subtle fruit character.
