Compass Box Orangerie

It is fitting that Orangerie has been created in the second golden Elizabeth era. The earliest orangery in Britain was built in the late 1500s by Frances Carew. It was there that Queen Elizabeth 1st visited and probably tasted oranges for the first time.

To Compass Box, as a whiskymaker, it has always seemed natural to complement the flavour palate of certain whiskies with the vibrancy of orange zest and the aromatics of oriental spices.

Orangerie is an infusion of Scotch Whisky and natural ingredients, which complement the whisky and enhance its overall aromas and flavours.

Orangerie cannot be called Scotch Whisky, as it has taken on flavours from the infusion of fresh, hand-zested orange peel and exotic spices.

Tasting notes:
Fascinating aromas of fresh-peeled orange and Christmas cake spice rise from the glass. On the palate, soft, rich whisky flavours blend with hints of vanilla, cassia bark and clove, offset by sweet natured orange.
