Tasting Notes by jwise

Compass Box is a very innovative company, bottling some really great pure malt whiskies. The Oak Cross was pretty good, so I was excited to try out the Spice Tree.

Nose: Vanilla, honey, red pepper, & bananas.

Palate: Great mouth feel, warming, plenty of pepper. Sweet fruit as well. No citrus.

Finish: Wow! Peppery w/ a honey/vanilla that is LONG!

This is fantastic! Spicy, sweet, smooth, w/ a long finish that brings back all the best of the palate.
