Compass Box No Name
[NOH-naym]
Compass Box No Name is a highly acclaimed, limited-edition blended malt Scotch whisky known for being one of the peatiest whiskies ever released by the London-based blending house Compass Box. Released in three iterations (2017, 2019, and 2021), the series was named "No Name" to let the intense, complex, and smoky liquid speak for itself rather than relying on a traditional title.

Nose: A powerful, briny, and medicinal blast of Ardbeg-driven tarry peat smoke, balanced by undertones of lemon zest, vanilla icing, and savory smoked meat
Palate: An oily and intense arrival of heavy bonfire ash and charcoal, which slowly reveals complex layers of caramel sweetness, dried red fruits, waxy citrus, and medicinal phenolic smoke
Finish: Exceptionally long and drying, leaving a parting memory of lingering peat smoke, black pepper spice, salted caramel, and a delicate fruity sweetness.

Nose: Peat smoked gummi bears on a bed of sea salt, combined with violet notes, green kitchen herbs, and a touch of dusty oak
Palate: Initially smoky and dry with salt-kissed Riesling notes, transitioning into a surprisingly creamy mouthfeel featuring soft caramel, medicinal brine, and nuts
Finish: Well-rounded and pleasant, leaving lingering green herbal notes, a bit of oaky tannins, and a gentle reappearance of seaside peat smoke.
