Compass Box No Name Edition 1 48.9% - 30ml / 50ml

Released in 2017 this is a great peated blend from Compass Box especially for Ardbeg fans. Compass Box likes full transparency and list the component malts of their blends and how much they use. In No Name the distillery would not allow them to disclose the name although they said it was a peated Islay malt from Pier Road. The only distillery on Pier Road is Ardbeg. 

75.5% of the spirit is from malt whisky produced at Pier Road Islay (Ardbeg) which comes in Re-Charred American Standard Barrels. These barrels add Intense smoke, peaty and tarry characteristics.

    10.6% is from Refill American Standard Barrels coming from a distillery near the village of Port Askaig (Caol Ila) which provides light smoke and medicinal aromas.

    13.4% is Re-Charred Hogsheads from the village of Brora (Clynelish). These bring out waxy, fruity and ethereal flavours.

    0.5% is a Highland Malt Blend matured in heavy toast French oak hybrid casks with caramel and clove-spice touch.
