Compass Box recently announced the extension of their signature range with the addition of Orchard House.
This whisky sets itself apart from the rest of the core range: not only does it use malt spirit sourced by Compass Box nearly a decade ago, but the lighter oak influence allows the fruit-forward style of these spirits to express themselves. This makes it a standout all-rounder in the brand’s line up of blended malt Scotch whiskies.
Orchard House is designed to excite whisky-lovers and newcomers alike. “Orchard House is our first core range whisky produced almost entirely from whiskies we have aged since the day they were distilled. In a sense, it’s more ‘our whisky’ than anything we’ve made before,” says Compass Box Founder and Whiskymaker John Glaser. “We are so proud of this. Something new, something different for us. Something joyful. And delicious.”
The majority of the recipe is made from stocks of spirit purchased from distilleries renowned for their fruit-forward flavor. These spirits are then aged in a variety of casks, with the resulting blended malt Scotch whisky creatively aligned with the artistry and innovation which Compass Box is known for.
Compass Box’s Orchard House will be available on October 1 for $50.
