A Bold Rebirth of a Beloved Whisky
 
The Spice Tree by Compass Box is a testament to the resilience and creativity of whisky making. Originally discontinued due to its unconventional oak-aging method, The Spice Tree has been triumphantly resurrected with a new, innovative approach to cask making that conforms to industry standards without compromising on the bold, rich profile that first made it a favorite.
 
Innovative Cask Design
 
After the initial setback, Compass Box collaborated with skilled coopers in France and Scotland to develop a unique hybrid cask. This innovative design utilizes French oak heads and American oak bodies, enabling The Spice Tree to mature with the intended flavor profile that originally captivated whisky enthusiasts. This method showcases Compass Box's commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional Scotch whisky without flouting the rules.
 
Tasting Notes
 
Nose: The Spice Tree greets you with aromas of baking spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, intertwined with rich vanilla and hints of caramel, evoking a warm, inviting kitchen.
Palate: The palate is a complex layering of toasty oak tones and spiced sweetness, balanced by the robust natural flavors of the malt. Each sip reveals deeper notes of clove, ginger, and a subtle fruitiness that complements the oak's warmth.
Finish: Long and rewarding, the finish continues the theme of spiced, toasty warmth, leaving a lingering taste of oak and a mellow smoothness that encourages another sip.
 
Perfect Serving and Pairing
 
Bottled at 46%, non-chill filtered, and presented in its natural color, The Spice Tree is best enjoyed neat or with a little water to open up its aromatic complexities. It pairs wonderfully with rich desserts or as a satisfying end to a meal, making it a versatile addition to any whisky collection.
