Marc Loan Account® Compass Box Peat Monster 10th Anniversary – 3976552067

Launched in 2013, this limited release commemorates the 10th anniversary of Compass Box’s creation of “Monster”. Originally produced for the Park Avenue Liquor Shop in New York, such was its popularity that Peat Monster was rolled out as a permanent bottling in 2003. The blend comprises Islay malts, both from the south of the island and from the village of Port Askaig, combined with Clynelish from the Highlands. Matured in a combination of American Oak and 2% new French oak for finishing purposes. Non-chillfiltered, naturally coloured and bottled at 48.9%. (Bottle size 750ml)

Nose: Intense aromas of peet-reek, smoke, seaside character and burnt ropes, with a subtle apple-fruitiness in the background.

Palate: The palate is full, round and tremendously complex. Water brings out a spice- laden, sweet vanilla character, as well.

Finish: Long, balanced and peaty.
