Scotch so avant-garde it was illegal in 2005.
Compass Box, Scottish maker of artisanal Whisky, is known for its forward-thinking and extravagant expressions. They create custom casks from premium Oak, select the best Whiskies they can find, create unique and magical blends, which are then matured for up to six years. Then, in 2005, Compass Box went "too far". In their daring endeavor, they decided to shake things up and use staves in the finishing process. Absolute horror show, right? Well, apparently. The Scotch Whisky Association banned the expression in 2006. Again, the staves!
Anyway, the lavish Spice Tree is back. After some tinkering and conspiratorial meetings with barrel makers, they came up with a unique hybrid Oak cask that brings similar results as the verboten version. And its second coming is wonderfully stunning. The 2.0 version was matured in custom-made American Oak casks with heads made of French Oak, and the result is a rich and intense malt with toasty accents and a taste that is so grand it should be illegal again. It's an awe-inspiring dram and expect unexpected smiles or even grins. Your brain will not compute the excellence.

Ratings & Reviews
Stephen,
Really smooth, not too sweet, easily drinkable, maybe a touch of ginger feel. Definitely worth it. Lovely.
guest,
Perfect combination of Spice and sweet
Stephen,
I love the sweet and spicy smell of this whisky. The first 10 minutes of pouring it into my glass I just sniffed it taking in the notes of honey and spice and feeling relaxed. Once I started drinking it I was not disappointed by the taste! I love a good whisky that warms me from the inside and Spice Tree did that. This drink is smooth starting off sweet and leaving a tangy taste in my mouth. I'm going to enjoy this bottle!!
Krist,
Deliciously smooth... a fantastic scotch straight up, on the rocks, or my favourite with a splash of warm water.
Joseph,
Soft start, bold salty finish. Decent flavor and would buy again.
