About this bottle
This limited edition blended Scotch whisky from Compass Box is part of its Extinct Blends Quartet, a series honouring previous styles of famous blends from decades past. Ultramarine is a reimagining of an 'iconic deluxe blended Scotch' that had its first bottlings in the late '80s and early '90s. This blend draws on malt and grain whiskies from the Caol Ila, Girvan, Glendullan and Cameronbridge distilleries along with a whole medley of pre-blended whiskies from the Compass Box stocks, for a peaty, sherried expression. It's naturally coloured and non-chill filtered.
One of 5,430 bottles.
