How does Compass Box, a blending house, produce a single barrel but still impart their magic while also offering a unique product? The marrying cask of course. After the peaty, high malt content, Glasgow Blend is put together, the whisky gets redistributed into its original casks for months or even years of marrying. Each cask then contains the same blended whisky but over time they evolve into unique single barrels that highlight the notes originally contributed by that cask. In our case - we've selected an Oloroso Sherry seasoned butt from Craigellachie that housed the peaty Glasgow blend.
