• Compass box is not one of a kind when it comes to the world of Scotch. It is a blending company, which is how several distilleries got their start in scotland
• Think Bourbon Brand Companies
  • Nulu/Bardstown Bourbon/Smokewagon
• They consider themselves ‘Whiskymakers’
  • a word they invented
  • A Whiskymaker is someone who feels compelled to make things better - to ask questions, to challenge, to experiment. A Whiskymaker is different from a distiller, and more than a blender.
• If they were a bourbon company, I would be bashing them for this! But, again, majority of blended scotch companies started this way
• History of Compass box
  • Back in 2000, John Glaser was working for a large UK distiller when he realized that there was so much that hadn’t yet been explored in the world of Scotch whisky.
  • So, he started Compass Box, an inventive company based on the long-lost model of the Scotch whisky blending house, but with a forward-looking approach and an unrelenting desire to create deliciousness.
  • Originally working from his kitchen, Compass Box has grown over the years and now has two dedicated Blending Rooms in London.
  • They have their own stocks of maturing whiskies in Scotland and a team of over 15 hugely enthusiastic whisky-lovers.
• The bottle:
  • 100% malted Barely
  • Blend of:
    • 64.7% Caol Ila (cull Eela)
    • 35% Laphroaig
    • Less than 1% Highland Malt Blend
