Description

Selected by Thierry Benitah and his team at La Maison du Whisky, this 2020 limited edition was released in lieu of the festival release that would have accompanied the 2020 Whisky Live show in Paris, cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This special limited-edition blend was created to celebrate whisky and the ways it connects people, even when apart. Compass Box is known for its transparency, disclosing details about originating distilleries, cask types, and proportions in the final blend.
