Compass Box Orchard House Scotch Whisky, 750 ML

Scotch blended malt whisky. 46% ABV, non-chill-filtered.

“No color added:” as a bourbon lover first and foremost, this note on other whiskys always startles me, since it’s illegal to add anything to bourbon. Butttt at least it’s there! The descriptions say it is “fruit-forward” and “spirit-driven,” and I grasp the former but not the latter. The fruit is prevalent in notes of citrus, apple and pear, but very, very light.
