Operating since 2000, Compass Box Whisky Company is currently one of the most prestigious and open whisky publishers, and the Duokle Angelams (Lithuanian for “Tribute to Angels”) presented here is no exception.
This blended malt was created in cooperation with the Vilnius Baltic Whisky Shop and Bar. "The core of this extraordinary whisky is the Compass Box Highland blended malt aged in special French oak barrels. In the next stage of the blend, a portion of whisky aged in a seasoned Oloroso sherry barrel was added, then Linkwood aged in so-called STR wine casks (Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred wine barrels), and finally whisky aged in bourbon barrels. This limited edition consisted of only 1,494 bottles.
