Compass Box Spice Tree – 70cl
The Compass Box Spice Tree is made from Highland malt whiskies which are aged in bespoke casks with new French oak heads of varying toast levels. It yields a malt whisky of richness and complexity. The palate is full, round and sweet, with the spice and vanilla complementing the core distillery characters while leaving a long finish.
TASTING NOTES
Appearance : old gold.
Nose : rich and deep. Notes of cereal and ripe fruit (apple, pear). A succession of spice (cinnamon, nutmeg), dried fruit (almond, apricot) and candied citrus fruit (grapefruit, lemon) enveloped in noble wood and beeswax.
Palate : balanced, enveloping. Its fruity (mirabelle plum, plum) sweetness is tangible. Forgotten, the relative dryness of the nose, the bitterness of the malted barley, reappears. But, apart from bringing a touch of green, it has almost no real influence. Vanilla
ABV 46%
