The Spice Tree from Compass Box is a rich, intense malt whisky with aromas reminiscent of baking spices and layered with toasty oak accents that complement the underlying spirited character. The core flavours of malt and red fruit character are complemented by vanilla, toffee abd hints of clove, cardamom and ginger. The Spice Tree is a recreation of the original Spice Tree created by Compass Box. Due to the more experimental method originally used in the oak-aging process, the powers that be decided to discontinue production. Through determination to bring The Spice Tree back and through working with the coopers in France and Scotland to develop a new hybrid oak cask that would achieve similar results to the original, The Spice Tree is back - matured using custom made casks with French oak for the heads and American oak for the bodies. It can be served straight, with ice or a splash of water. |
