Compass Box Juveniles

I love this as a summer whiskey. Floral and citrus in spades. Interesting enough to hold it's own and still be spritely and light. Would happily repurchase a third time.

Light, airy, fruity nose. Same on the taste. Not too sweet, with lots of fruit

Interesting nose. Started with spice and faded to fruit. Would love to try this when I had not just had spicy food...

Tastes very similar to Old Pulteney 12 but not as rich.

The rate at which Compass Box releases whiskies tailored to the specifications of a restaurant or retailer has me hopeful that it won’t be too long before individual consumers can order customised blends in the same way that we can design our own sneakers or suits online. Give me a funky nose with a nutty, peaty body and a lightly sherried finish and I think I’ll be set, thank you. That’s not what the Juvenile restaurant behind this release ordered up, but it’s still another enjoyable composition by John Glaser. You get the fresh floral aromas of a spring morning, followed in the mouth by flavors of malt, whipping cream and milky tea. It finishes strong with caramel and a burst of red pepper flakes. It’s another solid Compass Box release, better than some of the more mediocre ones though not memorable enough to make my top 10. Worth trying, though I wouldn’t buy a full bottle at this price.
