Power, abundance, and intensity are the words that characterize this edition from Compass Box. Its name, Crimson Casks, rewards curiosity with a whisky that is rich, full-bodied, and spicy. This blended malt pays tribute to the barrels from the Jose y Miguel Martín Bodega, located in Jerez, Spain: red wine casks and seasoned sherry butts are the primary casks used for aging this whisky. Tasting Idea – Pour a dash of Crimson Casks over ice cream to reveal beautiful fig and cinnamon flavors. |
