Compass Box Vellichor, 44.6%,

Price: 450 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Scotch Whisky


Honey, sanded oak, potpourri, charred oak, banoffee pie, dark fruits, green olive, coffeegrounds, ginger, pepper, and a savory leather note: plenty for the olfactory senses to grapple with. Soft fruits, maltiness, berries, chocolate, plum, bramble, red apple, and gently supportive spices to taste, it develops a superbly thick and chewy texture with a waxy mouthfeel on the finish. I consider this among blender James Saxon's best work to date. (3,246 bottles)Collectible
