The Compass Box Canvas Blended Malt is a limited edition expression, meticulously crafted and bottled at 46% ABV without chill-filtration or added coloring. This unique blend comprises single malts aged in American oak, sourced from the esteemed Tomatin, Glenburgie, Glen Elgin, and Imperial distilleries. A significant part of its distinct character comes from a parcel of single malt re-racked into experimental barrels for three years. Notably, some of the Tomatin single malt has been finished in casks seasoned with Vino Naranja, a Spanish fortified wine infused with orange peel, imparting a rich marmalade fragrance. On the nose, this whisky is characterized by beeswax, citrus, autumnal apple, and notes of roasted chestnuts. The palate unfolds delightful layers of vanilla, shortbread, heather honey, milk chocolate, and a hint of black pepper. The finish is long, revealing flavors of cardamom, nutmeg, roasted almond, and lingering oak spices with a touch of vanilla sweetness. This exceptional whisky is a testament to Compass Box's expertise in sourcing small parcels of old whiskies from renowned distilleries like Tomatin. Distilled in July 2021, and with only 5880 bottles available, this release is a rare and coveted find for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
