Paradox Compass Box is the latest of our whisky cask aged imperial stouts to be released from its smoky, shadowy cocoon.

Our huge stout was aged in Compass Box great King Street barrels for 221 days before bottling.

Full bodied, crashing roasty malt flavours are tempered by a rich chocolate character, balanced with light smoke and an extra layer of orange oil complexity.

Malts: Cara, Carafa, Dark Crystal, Extra Pale, Munich
