Compass Box Orchard House is a blended malt scotch whisky often described as fruity, refreshing, and versatile, with prominent notes of apple, pear, and citrus balanced by hints of vanilla and baking spice. While marketed as being mainly fruit-forward, some reviews note a subtle, slightly smoky or peaty undercurrent from a small proportion of Caol Ila, which may appeal to those transitioning from bourbon or looking for a more complex profile. It is bottled at 46%ABV and is considered a good value for its flavor profile.
