Compass Box “No Name, No. 3” Scotch Whisky (Limited Edition)

No Name, No. 3 marks a further point on the spectrum of peat. It is older, wilder and weirder than the previous No Names. Seaweedy and barbecue-scented single malt from the Laphroaig Distillery takes top billing, with malt whisky from the Bowmore Distillery lending compelling hints of mango and pineapple at the very limits of ripeness.

Seashells and sage; pineapple and allspice; smoke that moves in oily waves. This is the perfect whisky for introducing a little drama to proceedings – and a fitting conclusion to our peaty trilogy.

TASTING NOTES

Even fruitier than No Name, No. 2 and almost as smoky as No Name. The peat character is more medicinal than No Name, with a beautiful heathery and tropical fragrance.

SERVING RECOMMENDATIONS

For a complex whisky with such illustrious components, we recommend enjoying neat or alongside a full-bodied blue cheese like Stichelton.
