As part of its 20th anniversary, Compass Box has released this limited edition cask strength bottling of Peat Monster, as a reference to the origin story of the basic version, with roots in the USA. Peat Monster came about after Compass Box created a whiskey for the Park Avenue Liquor Shop in New York City, which was a huge success, and thus Peat Monster was born. This version of blended malt Scotch includes whiskey from the blend aged in new barrels of American oak, adding extra notes of vanilla and spices.

The special whisky line, from our independent Compass Box bottlers, goes back to 2000. At that time, John Glaser believed that there were too many companies that similarly made and sold scotch whiskey. So, he created a different kind of company based on an old model, which is about mixing at home, but with a progressive approach and an unrelenting desire to create quality. Today, compass boxes possess a new way of producing blended scotch and malt whiskey. This is the creation of open-minded, original and different whiskies, something that starts from blending and aging, to the name and packaging of the spirits.
