About this bottle
Compass Box The Story of the Spaniard is a blended Scotch whisky (malt and grain, rather than a blended-malt-only release) from the independent bottler known for transparent sourcing and experimental cask finishing. This expression finishes in ex-Rioja wine casks from Spain, layering red-wine fruit and spice over the underlying Scotch whisky base. Expect a nose of sweet vanilla, toasted oak, and dried fruit with a Rioja-driven red-fruit edge, a smooth, creamy palate carrying honey and toasted oak, and a long, lingering finish. Compass Box built its reputation on this kind of unconventional cask experimentation, publishing far more sourcing detail than most Scotch bottlers.
How to drink The Story of the Spaniard
Pour it neat — the Rioja-cask red-fruit character is worth tasting undiluted before deciding if a drop of water suits your palate.
