Суммаризация отзывов

Лёгкий фруктовый blended malt с яблоком, грушей, цитрусом, мёдом и ванилью, часто хвалят нос, цену и питкость, но нередко упрекают за молодость, короткий или горький финиш и слабую интегрированность.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах виски устойчиво описывают как лёгкий, свежий и легко пьющийся фруктовый бленд с яблоками, грушами, цитрусом и лимонной цедрой, мёдом и ванилью; иногда добавляются восковые, травянистые, солёные и лёгкие дымно-торфяные ноты, а также тропические и косточковые оттенки. Нос чаще всего называют лучшей частью и ярко фруктовым, сам напиток — удачным «летним» драмом; к плюсам относят доступную цену, баланс и освежающий характер, а некоторые называют его любимым повседневным или «no-brainer» за свои деньги. При этом часть отзывов считает его неинтересным, водянистым, коротким, слишком горьким или металлически-молодым; на вкусе фруктовость часто слабеет, появляются специи, дуб, имбирь и перец, и нередко звучит упрёк, что палата не оправдывает обещаний носа. Повторяющиеся претензии — молодость и недостаточная интегрированность, финиш от короткого до среднего, порой горький, терпкий или «старо-древесный», иногда дубовая терпкость и неприятная горечь. Есть противоречивые впечатления: у одних виски со временем в бокале раскрывается лучше, у других вкус слабее аромата или разочаровывает; восприятие зависит от партии или бутылки, а неоднородность состава тоже отмечается. Мнения о торфе расходятся: у кого-то он заметен в носу и слабеет во вкусе, у кого-то почти исчезает или, наоборот, усиливается к концу бутылки; слабый торфяной/морской след чаще улавливают лишь намёком, иногда только после открытия бутылки или с водой. Сравнения с Spice Tree расходятся — от «идёт вровень» до «лучше взять Spice Tree». Редкие и отрицательные мнения: скучным и цветочным, не подошёл французский дуб, самый разочаровывающий Compass Box за годы или слишком молодой, отмечали клей и горьковатый финиш; есть сдержанные оценки «не впечатляет», «резковато», «не совсем гармонично», «одномерность» в послевкусии, спиртовая атака и закрытый нос, который раскрывается со временем, а одно мнение прямо называет его посредственным.

MrGlenfarclas Connoisseur 78 22 mar 2024 5:50 pm
Blind tasting Nose: Lots of fresh, citrusy fruit. Very bitter. Smells like a young blend from the bourbon barrel. The alcohol comes through even though I don't think there's much in it. Mouth: Malty sweet. But above all a bit bitter. Could have had a little more alcohol. I estimate 46-48% on the tongue. Relatively sharp. A slightly metallic note that also contributes a lot to the bitterness. It doesn't taste particularly good to me. Nice fruit. But alcoholically sharp and metallically young. Not totally bad, but not really good either.

Both fresh and ripe fruits, some honey, vanilla, green leafy floral notes, hints of peat with smoke and salt. Very light, easy to drink. My favorite basic CB blend.

I’ve had this one many times, from many different bottles but somehow never got around to properly sit down with it. Better late then never! About this dram, I can be pretty concise: solid stuff, spot-on marketing, it delivers on its premise/promise and then some. The name and art on the label really match the flavour well. Indeed I can envision scenes of an orchard in late summer while drinking this, with ripe fruits and bees around (I get honey/waxy notes in this as well, is that you Clynelish?). Craft presented, (unnecessary) proof that blends can be very solid, and for the price a clear winner.

A pleasant and unassuming blended malt featuring Linkwood, Clynelish, and Benrinnes. The three major components of the blend played nicely together; Linkwood appeared with the citrus and herbal nuts, Benrinnes gave a lovely weight on the palate, and the Clynelish more citrus, orchard fruit, and chalk-stoney depth. I did not quite get the impression of an orchard— maybe a house near an orchard; possibly, that was Compass Box's intention. While orchard fruits— citrusy and otherwise— played a starring role— notes of old oak, tea, and pastries brought to mind a farmhouse and a picturesque brunch. While this did not tickle my fancy, I would grab it ahead of Glenlivet, Glenfiddich, or Balvenie 12 Year. It fits into a similar place as those single malts but with more depth and restrained sweetness. It was pleasant and, perhaps most importantly for an unassuming whisky such as this, affordable.

85+ I initially had this as the worst core range CB (1st bottle), but now it is definitely my favorite (2nd bottle). Great PLV at 45-55 euros even in pricey locations like mine, very wellmade blended malt that feels like a young Highland single malt with a twist. Super honest and versatile, greatly dilutable and quite intense. I'm sold until they screw up the formula.
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос86In your face freshness popping everywhere, fresh malt, floral-honey and bright fruits (a literal orchard, from peach and sour apples to lemon and sour plums). Oily, almost greasy on the nose, clear zesty caramel and chocolate notes. Grassy, the wood can sometimes come off as a bit musty, however I'd say it is still quite fresh and clean overall. A bit salty and chlorine-y in the back. Never too exciting (at the end of the day this is relatively cheap), but certainly never boring, always intense and fresh enough to keep you engaged despite its youth.
Вкус86Oily even after hard dilution, barley sugars join forces with sourness and saltiness. Juicy yet sour fruits (green apples, lemon, unripe pomegranate), salted caramel. Second half presents a soft peatiness unexpected after the nose, more salted caramel and very diverse oak spices --- pink pepper and nutmeg, cinnamon mixed with brown sugar, green powder ginger. Original and very well executed.
Финиш84Medium length, very decent for a lightly peated NAS. Still fresh and bright, lightly smoky, toasted malt and light/white-yellow fruits once again. Soft oak spices, zesty chocolate, freshly cut grass. Quite nice, CB, I will definitely buy more of this in the future.

04/10/2024 - 60 ml Compass Box, this time you didn't fool me with this late afternoon perfume, but I was personally disappointed. Well, the label is honest, because the citrus, fruity and floral aromas are expected, but in the mouth the flowers go and the leaves come for the goat to eat.
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос75Very light vanilla, as well as light white flowers, citrus fruits and white wood. The alcohol is light, with a spice of allspice. Deeper, despite burning more, pineapple appeared, a slight mango and the vanilla was much more apparent; the wood turned out to be old, although light. With water, white sugar is released, the malt separates a little and the alcohol continues to persevere, but without being unpleasant. It seems to me like a very fragrant ex-bourbon blend. Once the label is revealed and I know I have another 30ml to play with, let's add ice: it continues with the delicate delivery of citrus, light malt, flowers and old barrel. Interestingly, it didn't change with the presence of ice. Ah, melon appeared.
Вкус71Very thin, bearable grain alcohol, old barrel, ripe pineapple, lemon, vanilla and some macerated yellow flower. There is a release of tannins just like green leaves; There's a soft drink here in Minas Gerais called Mate-couro, made with yerba mate and leather hat, it really reminded me. With water it became sweeter, the old barrel continues and brings the astringency of green leaves, light malt and hop bitterness. After revealing the label and placing two ice cubes, it remains astringent with green leaves, yerba mate, hops and a clear, but old barrel.
Финиш66Short to medium, leaving an aftertaste of white, old and astringent wood.
Peatyjohn Expert Senior 86 16 jun 2025 4:46 pm
Fruit salad in a whisky bottle, and at a good value/price. Getting gentle entry of pineapples, honey, lime, peaches and gala melon with a biscuity malt, sugar barley finish. A lemon zest leaves bitter finish. Balance of sourness and sweetness with a leaning towards sourness.Time in glass really works for this dram and opens up the flavours considerably. Upgrading to 86. Fruit replaces the sour notes.

This is a very, very good summer dram and really bang for your bucks. It wears its name perfectly. You’re drinking a bowl of fruits and for the price asked for a bottle, it’s a no-brainer. Buy one, open it, and drink it. It’s great in the summer but honestly, it’s still winter at the time of writing and I’m enjoying it quite a lot too.

Replacing the 2021 discontinued Oak Cross, Orchard House is the latest addition to the Compass Box core range. Ripe fruits are the main theme, and the nose delivers what the label promised: apples, pears and vanilla, mixed with peaches, biscuits and honey. More of the same on the palate, before it turns spicy and slightly dry in the development, enriched by unripe banana, pineapple and ginger. Lemon zest, grapefruit and herbal notes subside in the medium finish, and I can even hear the Caol Ila whispering. A rock-solid sipper for long summer evenings.

Surprisingly good for its (young) age and (low) price. By the way, this is the age ratio: Benrinnes - 8 y.o. Linkwood - 8 y.o. Clynelish - 8 y.o. Distillery near the town of Aberlour - 6 y.o. Highland Malt Blend - 10 y.o. Caol Ila - 8 y.o. [Weighted arithmetic mean: 7,88 years.]
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос86Fragrantly floral and fruity, with a soft waxiness (thanks to Clynelish and Benrinnes) and lovely wood notes. The fruits come across as "young" (mainly grape, pear, and peach), but are well integrated with some oily spirit, sweet ex-bourbon aromas, and a slightly savory side. The minuscule amount of Caol Ila provides a briny / saline / maritime backdrop without ever translating into any actual smokiness. Buttery soft with zero alcohol in the nose. Honeyed and rich. Excellent cask quality.
Вкус86Surprisingly deep and textured, with a great balance of sweetness, fruity acidity, and oak spice. Again, no "boozy", alcoholic impression; the first-fill bourbon wood has done its job well and filtered out any rough edges in a short amount of time. This may not have worked with other distillates, but the Clynelish/Benrinnes/Caol Ila combination really comes through with a nice mouthfeel and way more character than your standard 10-12-year-old Speysider. I'm no Linkwood expert, but there's also a faintly herbal/earthy/rooty impression that it might be responsible for. Tasty, fun, and unboring to drink.
Финиш85Long, especially when you take age into account. Honeyed, malty and fruity, with immaculate oak influence and a puff of smoke to round things off and prolong the experience. At times I'm unsure if there's just a whiff of more "neutral" alcohol in the finish, but the impression comes and goes, so I'm detracting no more than a point here.

A very fresh and fruity nose with all kinds of apple and pear (both sweet ripe ones and more sour stuff), also floral with sparkling notes of cirus and slight vanilla. Slides down really easy, though it's not the most complex of drams. There's some more of a bitter and slight flattening note in development and finish. Overall good value for money.

A successful summer whisky. The smell is one of the fruitiest malts I can remember recently. Linkwood and Clynelish harmonize well, but could use a bit more maturity. I kind of miss the balance of a Compass Box Spice Tree. But maybe a bit too much to ask given the amount of fruit in one pile.

Most disappointing Compass Box that I had in years... Much too young and imo not integrated enough.
SAND Expert Senior 88 16 dec 2021 12:53 am
(TASTED BLIND) NOSE: Sweet candy, green herbs, wintergreen, petroleum, mint, dried banana, sweet bourbon. (89p). TASTE: The arrival is a bit fruity, with mild orchard fruits. On the mid palate the fruitiness continues and is joined by a nice freshness/acidity, a touch of astringency and some green herbal notes. All in all quite nice. (88p). FINISH: Fruitiness, acidity, astringency and green herbs come together with a touch of pepper/wood spice. Fairly long. (87-88p). OVERALL: A restrained fruitiness and measured level of complexity. Probably not for everyone but I like this fruity-acidic and mildly astringent style quite well. Total score 88 points.

Sweet, light, fruity (pears, apples, bit of peaches), slightly minerally (the Linkwood talking?). Little bith of alcohol on the nose but that's just a small point of critique. All in all a nice malt and very well put together. Only at the very end do you get a hint of the Caol Ila - just a hint of peat, and that only came when the bottle was open for a bit already. Edit: opens up beautifully, I've had this open for a bit over a year now - absolute bargain.

This blend has the mixture of Benrinnes, Linkwood, Clynelish and Caol lla, and the first-fill barrel projected something that doesn't even look like a blend. A very nice whiskey, light and fresh and very tasty. Easy to please for any occasion. Highly recommend! @rotadowhisky

Нос85Nose: A very vibrant and fragrant whiskey with floral and fruity aromas. White grapes, not-too-ripe apples, bananas, lemon zest, honey, shortbread and an herbal aroma, like lemongrass tea, are immediately present. All of this wrapped in a fresh oak scent from first-fill barrels. The saline and marine notes appear, but in a very subtle way.
Вкус85Palate: It is light and refreshing, with a pleasant finish and a slightly drier profile. Demonstrates a good balance between flavors. Sweet, citrusy malt and a slight acidity. Its medium body with oak spice, white pepper, slightly dry, and the peat is very light and pleasant.

A bottle that gives a similar feeling from the beginning to the end as you empty it. However, as it gets closer to the end, the peat feeling gets stronger and it feels a bit thin, so I wonder if it's because the bright and sweet taste loses its power first or if it's a condition issue. (Usually, peat loses its power faster, but it felt that way after about 3 months of opening.) Personally, among the whiskies that can be chosen under 100,000 won, it's a well-made blended with a generous 46% ABV, an overall flawless taste, and various layers.

The Orchard House is another outstanding blended malt from Compass Box. A fruity, light summer whisky with lovely fruit notes and just enough spice to keep it interesting. A subtle hint of smoke from the Clynelish spirit adds a nice touch. Once again, Compass Box demonstrates that well-made blended malts are in no way inferior to single malts. Many distilleries could certainly learn a thing or two from their transparency.

Нос85It has a very pleasantly fruity nose. Apples, pears, pineapple, papaya, and a good splash of lime. Some honey and malt notes are also present. A subtle, delicate smoky note can be detected in the background.
Вкус85It opens with abundant citrus notes: lime and lemon, before the fruit provides sweetness. Again, slightly unripe pears, apples, pineapple, papaya, and mango emerge, topped with a touch of honey. A subtle woody spice appears. Ginger's heat brings a slight tingle to the tongue. A sweet and sour balance develops, before a hint of smoke emerges.
Финиш84The finish is medium-long at most. The initial sweetness and acidity are complemented by a pleasant woody spice. Towards the end, a bit more smoke does indeed come through.
cekiconur Expert Junior 83 22 jul 2026 4:18 am
Bottled: 02.09.2023 Overall, I find it to be a very pleasant and refreshing whisky; I would certainly say it is one of the best choices for the summer season. That said, I was a bit disappointed by the nose or perhaps my expectations were simply too high as I struggled to pick out distinct aromas; to me, there wasn't anything particularly bold or overpowering. However, the elegance and freshness it delivers on the palate and in the finish—along with its clean texture that never tires the taste buds—really pleased me and lifted the spirits that had dampened slightly during the nosing stage. From what I’ve seen, while it is very reasonably priced in some places, it is harder to find and much more expensive in others; I ended up paying the higher price, but even so, if I wanted to drink whisky during this hot summer, this would easily be my choice. If you sip it with the glass or bottle slightly chilled, it feels truly wonderful. Cheers.
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос82When I open the bottle and bring it to my nose, the first scents to emerge are abundant creamy vanilla and notes of sweet, juicy yellow fruit. After pouring some into a glass and letting it sit for about 15 minutes, a clean malt sweetness comes to the fore, accompanied by plenty of vanilla reminiscent of pastry cream; I also detect a hint of oak slightly further back. Feeling it hadn't opened up enough, I added three drops of water; this revealed notes of juicy apricot, both stewed and fresh apple, slightly tart plum, and what seems to be a touch of cocoa powder. Additionally, gently swirling the glass releases aromas of dry earth and dried grass. The aromas are not entirely distinct or intense; the whisky feels somewhat young.
Вкус84In the small sip taken to prime the palate, I clearly detected sweet red apple and a hint of oak bitterness. Moving on to the second sip, I would describe it as smooth and light-bodied not oily, with a touch of acidity; it doesn't dry out the mouth and has a slightly juicy, sweet character, though if held in the mouth longer, it intensifies slightly and can feel a tad oilier. With the third, fourth, and subsequent sips, it is never fatiguing on the palate; it feels somewhat juicier and more refreshing, offering sweet fruit notes vanilla, bitter orange, apricot, peach, pear, juicy plum, and abundant citrus alongside a very subtle, delicate warmth of black pepper and ginger. It has an elegant structure.
Финиш84As it goes down the throat on the finish, I first detect a fleeting bitterness of oak spice and dry notes reminiscent of walnut shell; then, while perceiving flavors of sweet, ripe yellow apple, pear, apricot, nectarine, and a touch of honey, these quickly evolve as the seconds tick by into younger, fresher notes like green apricot, unripe plum, and unripe green peach, and even hints of green grass and herbs; honestly, this feels very refreshing and pleasant to me. I would describe the finish as having medium length.

Vineyard peaches, pears, pineapples, apples. In addition, delicious grain notes. Oatmeal, muesli. Uncomplicated, perfect strength. Right away, worth 88 points for me. A bargain for the price (40 €).

The whiskey didn't open up to me on the first try at an online regulars' table. But since he got away very well in the lap and I didn't think he was bad per se, he got another chance on a quiet evening. You can really get involved with the dram and the whiskey also has a lot to offer for the palate and nose. All in all a very good blended malt for a reasonable price.

Another very nice bottling from Compass Box. As the beautiful design of the whiskey suggests, this blended malt is a true fruit composition. When pouring, strong sugared vanilla notes pour out of the glass paired with Nashi pear, apple and a small, light note of smoke. The taste with typical bourbon barrel facets, vanilla and a basket with light sweet and sour fruits. The alcohol cools the palate like after biting into a mint leaf. A smoky note can be guessed at with a lot of imagination. The aftertaste is medium-long with honey sweetness, fruit and a bit of oak bitterness.

Nose: As the name suggests, a lot of garden fruit with apples, ringlets, peaches and a hint of lemon, lemon drops with a subtle note of yeast, pancake batter, panettone and subtle oak, vanilla, hazelnuts and marzipan. In the taste, honey and wax join the aromas of the nose (Clynelish?) In the finish then a bit one-dimensional on the oaky aroma spectrum. Conclusion: Pleasant for beginners but nothing more.
Erik1908 Expert Senior 87 05 mar 2022 4:03 pm
Compass Box, a Scottish whiskymaker and owned by an American who says he has no secret when blending whisky. One of my friends said that you pay too much for a fancy label and transparency; I have the intension to find out. Starting with this one.
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос87Initially quite closed, but some 20 minutes of hand-warming does the trick. When opening up, you enter a meadow full of green fruit. A field full of pears and especially apples. In between the trees of green fruit, a bouquet of flowers. In the far distance a mellow sea breeze from Islay bringing in a light touch and influence of Caol Ila.
Вкус87Although I mainly drink cask strength whiskies, this one has quite a full body. The 46% abv is ok, but I guess this would have been better when bottled somewhere between 46 and 50%. Slightly waxy. Strong arrival of herbs and oaky flavors. Fruity flavors are drawn to the back. Tickling spices on the tongue.
Финиш86Pretty long finish. Dominant spices in the finish. In the far end maybe slightly watery and dry. Conclusion: good start of my quest on the Compass Box catalogue. Great P/Q ratio. I am pretty sure this one blows quite some entry level single malt whiskies off the table.
