Compass Box This Is Not A Luxury Whisky / US Import 75cl

Inspired by René Magritte's 1929 surrealist painting 'Ceci n'est pas une pipe'. ... This is not a pipe.

The liquid inside is 79% 1st fill sherry matured Glen Ord 19 Year old, 18% Strathclyde 40 Year Old grain and 4% 30 Year Old Caol Ila.

Now for the controversy, apparently by showing the above information Compass Box (and technically Whisky Auctioneer) are breaking EU Law.  The Scotch Whisky Association received a complaint from a brand owner about Compass box being transparent about the contents of a blend.  Under Regulation 12.3 of the Spirit Drinks Regulation No 110/2008, any mention of a maturation period or age could only refer to the ‘youngest alcoholic component’ in a spirit. This rule applies to the ‘description, presentation or labelling’ of a spirit drink – including advertising, promotion and images.

While not normally ones to take a position on such things, we here at Whisky Auctioneer are all in favour of transparency and feel that Compass Box are 100% in the right by showing the full composition of their blend.

One of 4,000 bottles.

This bottle is a US import, 75cl.
