Whisky Focus - Compass Box Flaming Heart 4th Release

Compass Box Flaming Heart 4th Release


13th September 2012
Compass Box Flaming Heart blended malt Scotch whisky is back!

Every few years, when Compass Box have the appropriate combination of aged whiskies, they are able to blend and bottle a new edition of the award-winning Flaming Heart. I know many of you, like myself will be very pleased to hear that the guys at Compass Box have bottled and released their fourth edition of this outstanding blended malt Scotch whisky.

It is a big, smoky malt whisky with rich, concentrated vanilla and spice character.

It is unlike any other whisky, owing to the combination of distillery whiskies they use and the variety and quality of the casks.

This fourth release contains single malt whiskies from distilleries located in the Northern Highlands, Islay, Speyside and Islands. Primarily from the south shore of Islay and the village of Brora (Highlands). The whisky was matured in a  combination of refill American oak (ex-Bourbon), new French oak (heavily toasted) and sherry casks.

Bottled at 48.9%. Not chill filtered and natural colour, as you would expect from Compass Box. This fourth release is a limited release of 9,147 bottles.

If you would like to try the new edition of Flaming Heart and you are in the London area then why not pop into The Whisky Exchange Vinopolis shop today September 13th between 5pm - 7pm as John Glaser and the Compass Box team will be there to let you try the new whisky. This is a FREE event, you just have to turn up.
