Compass Box Spice Tree
A long time ago, we created a rich, bold Scotch whisky called The Spice Tree. Unfortunately, due to its avant garde method of oak-aging, we were compelled by the powers that be to discontinue production. Undeterred, we worked with our cooper friends in both France and Scotland to develop a new, hybrid oak cask that would allow us to achieve similar results, but in a way that would be acceptable to even the most conservative of observers. Et voila, THE SPICE TREE was resurrected- matured using a custom-made cask with French oak for the heads and American oak for the bodies.

Grant's 12 Year Old - Triple Wood
Many whiskies take their flavour from just one cask, but we mature Grant's Triple Wood 12 in three different types of wood: Sherry cask provides sweet spice robustness, American Oak lends subtle vanilla smoothness and Bourbon refill offers brown sugar sweetness, resulting in a rich, complex, vanilla taste.

Nose: Sweet and sherry-like, with dried fruits. Subtle woody notes and malty undertones.
Palate: Vanilla, honey and spice. All mixed together for a rich, sweet flavour. Aged grains and peated malt add depth, too.
Finish: Long soothing and warm, a feeling you won't want to rush.
