Experimental Grain Whisky Blended Grain CB (Compass Box)

Experimental Grain Whisky Blended Grain CB (Compass Box) is a blended grain Scotch from Compass Box. It marries grain whiskies from more than one distillery, Cameronbridge among them. Cameronbridge, Scotland's largest grain distillery, lends a light, sweet, oily grain to such whiskies.

Aged grain whiskies bring coconut, vanilla and a buttery sweetness to the vatting. An ex-Bourbon barrel shaped it, American oak giving coconut and toffee. The whiskies are married and rested before bottling. A blended grain marries grain whiskies from more than one distillery. The maker selects casks for the sweetness and depth each lends.
