Compass Box

London (blend), Scotland (kaynak), Scotland · 2000'den beri

Compass Box was founded in London in 2000 by John Glaser, an American-born marketer with a deep passion for Scotch whisky. Rather than owning a distillery, Glaser built his operation around the art of blending — sourcing exceptional casks from distilleries across Scotland and crafting them into innovative blended malts and blended Scotches. Expressions such as Hedonism, The Spaniard, Orchard House, and the Great King Street range have earned the company a devoted following among whisky enthusiasts who appreciate both craft and transparency. Compass Box has consistently pushed against the opacity of the Scotch whisky industry, famously challenging regulations that restrict producers from sharing detailed cask and recipe information on labels. This rebellious yet respectful approach to tradition has positioned the brand as a creative force in modern whisky culture. Each release reflects meticulous attention to wood selection, cask size, and maturation, resulting in whiskies that are layered, expressive, and genuinely distinctive.
