Despite its reputation as a somewhat traditional spirit, Scotch whisky offers incredible diversity of flavour, with single malts and blends ranging from elegant, floral expressions to rich, fruity and chocolatey drams. This bold blended malt from the Compass Box family is a vatting of mostly Highland Scotch whiskies matured in bespoke casks made from American and French oak. The result is a richly spiced and complex whisky that's perfect for sipping neat or used as a base for cocktails. Delicious served neat, but why not try it in an Unholy Alliance, a Boulevardier with a Scotch twist. Stir 40ml of The Spice Tree, 25ml sweet vermouth and 25ml of Campari over ice, before straining into a cocktail glass and garnishing with orange zest. Big and bold on the nose with tempting marzipan-iced fruitcake laced with plump raisins and dried citrus peel. The Spice Tree's name is felt on the palate, where zingy baking spices come to the fore.
This Compass Box The Spice Tree 70cl Scotch Whisky would be perfect for whisky enthusiasts seeking an exceptional highland beauty with a complex aroma and robust flavor.
