    Well, guys. I have to say you are true "influencers". I just went (this morning) and purchased my first Compass Box. The way you described the aromas and flavors got my mouth watering, or as Scott would say "glands salivating". Oh yes, here in Denver at the Total Wine, it is priced at (before taxes) $124.99.

      @@ScotchTestDummies I just opened one of my bottles. I am quite impressed, and I am glad this happens to be my first bottle of Compass Box. Yes, I waited this long. Anyway, I wont mention any tasting or aroma notes. I will say, however, I am glad I have got into the world of Armagnac, thanks to the Darroze company. My senses that allows me to appreciate whisky that was matured in wine or fortified wine casks have been elevated. And yes, I am aware that armagnac isn't a fortified wine, but I think it has helped me pick up similarities when a whisky has matured in sherry and other forms of fortified wine casks.I definitely do not regret buying three bottles. This bottle qualifies for the FORO designation. FORO = Fear of Running Out.

    It's an incredible pour, so much going on per sweet, dark fruit, figs, raisins, grapes, etc. A bit pricey but well worth it (mine was gifted so can't complain too much : ) thanks guys!

    Palo Cortado is a "variation" of Fino, not Oloroso. Basically It's created when the Flor that protects Fino form oxidizing gets damage

    I tend to stay away from the good stuff too, I figure it’s because I’m worried I’ll drink it all up too quick. I like to keep them as long as possible.

    I had to come back to this review, but not to comment about the whisky. I was just thinking "Bartado" sounds like something you can get at Taco Bell for $0.59 on Fridays. Cheers!

    Great nose but I thought the experience was let down by the finish which was very short. Must be a large % of the Port Dundas.
