Orangerie Whisky
Need a sweet treat for the holidays? Orangerie Whisky from Compass Box is relased once a year in small quantities and is a sweet 10-year-old Scotch whisky with a rich orange and spice flavor. The whisky is best suited for after dinner sipping although it is less sweet than a traditional orange liqueur. Some purists may grumble about it since it's a not really a whisky, it's an infusion, but it's a lovely holiday tipple. It might also really work well in a hot drink to chase the winter chill away. It sells for around $35.

Deirdre is right on as usual. Orangerie is a great bottle and would be a great gift.
Any "grumbling purists" haven't tried it yet.
I'm giving bottles as gifts this Christmas.
