Blended Scotch Compass Box The Spice Tree

It's back, the award winning malt whisky, The Spice Tree. Sourced from Northern Highland distilleries the primary maturation is 1st fill and refill American oak casks. The whisky is double matured in barrels with heavily toasted French oak heads for up to an additional two years. The result is a very rich malt whisky. Winner 'Liquid Gold Award' 2011 in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible™ (95.5 points). Blended Malt is a mixture of two or more Single Malt Scotch Whiskies which have been distilled at more than one distillery. Because Scotland’s whisky blenders are able to standardise the colour, strength and taste in their blends their customers are assured of consistency in a product which may be marketed over a number of years. Formally known as a Vatted Malt. Big, sweet aromas of clove, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. The palate is full, round and sweet, with the spice and vanilla complementing the core distillery characters and leaving a long finish.
