Compass Box Spice Tree

Nose - Sweet vanilla, candied ginger, heavily spiced mulled pear cider with a hint of sweet white wine. Taste - Oily mouthfeel, spiced black tea with hints of pear, lightly sour muscat grapes, orange peel, jaw breaker-like smooth/silky/milky sweetness, red hots. Finish - Warm smooth cinnamon heat, faint orange zest but slightly bitter as if there's a bit too much pith, lightly sour-sweet moscato wine, lightly drying. 89/100

Very special malt blend. Gotta give credit to the people at compass box for pushing the envelope on this one. Not a sherry bomb, more like a spicy highland. Sweet, spicy, elegant but packs a punch.
