Tastes

light and balanced. vanilla and fruit and maybe some floral notes. perfect everday sipper for $30 usd. only thing ive had under this price point thats worth buying is speyburn 10 but thats a different flavor profile.

this is a really wonderful whisky. it is bottled at 46% and no color added like most of compass boxes lineup. i get fruit up front. none of the bad ones; only apple and pear and then it gets sweeter with some vanilla and ends with a nuttiness. compass box is such a high integrity whisky maker and orchard house is no exception. it’s one of the more complex scotches i’ve had in the price range. generally at $50 (austin tx prices) you are getting one dimensional flavor profiles. this is not that.
