When the Forest King emerges from the trees, his oak crown remains untouched. This crown is bestowed upon him in honour of the transformative influence of wood on the realm of flavour and the art of metamorphosis that it brings to the blending table. Its crimson hue is masterful and powerful, balanced by a benevolent generosity that feels inviting: ‘What is mine is yours – enjoy.’ This is a call to pay him the honour he deserves.

The powerful, rich whiskies of the Compass Box Crimson Casks are matured in American oak sherry casks, perfectly tailored to harmonise with the wood. The Oloroso influence lends them a spicy and generous intensity that enriches the taste experience and makes for a truly special treat.
