How to find: Compass Box Whiskies – Scotch Whisky News
Compass Box Whiskies
A common question we’re asked is “where can I buy your whisky?”
This is particularly true for our Limited Editions, which can disappear quickly.
Here are some tips to help you find Compass Box whiskies…
Thinking about wine may not be the obvious first step when it comes to finding whisky but the brilliant website Wine Searcher (www.wine-searcher.com) is a great resource.
Wine Searcher is a search engine that allows you to locate availability and prices for wines, spirits and beers in over 90,000 retailers globally. You can specify your home country to narrow the search or find a store that ships internationally.
While not all retailers are included (and you’ll always want to confirm any claims the retailers make for inventory) Wine Searcher can be a great starting point, especially for some of our rarer Limited Editions. For example, a search for our whisky infusion Orangerie, now retired from our portfolio, shows it’s still available at some retailers in North America and the UK.
The last time we checked, there was even a retailer in Switzerland who claimed to have Circus!
We love specialist wine & spirits stores.
Some sprawl with bottles of everything we know and plenty we don’t. Others offer a more curated selection. Whether you have a specific bottle in mind or you’re simply browsing, they’re wonderful places to shop.
Picking the brains of knowledgeable staff adds value to the shopping experience; they can guide, educate or just commend you on your choices.
Seek out the specialist shops near you. Look for those that carry niche, lesser-known brands. Become a regular customer and you’ll make new discoveries and possibly a few friends.
Never a bad thing to have a friend in a specialist whisky shop.
The internet is the speciality store that is always open. You can find Compass Box whiskies across a range of websites around the world.
Our own online store stocks all of our year-round whiskies as well as the current Limited Editions.
Depending on the country you live in, you may have many online options for finding specialty spirits like ours. And the best of them are constantly learning how to make the experience reliable and fast.
Shopping online for niche wines and spirits can be the best way to find many brands like ours that produce in small volumes.
The Compass Box team are always on hand to help.
If you can’t find what you’re looking for, just drop us a line at hello@compassboxwhisky.com and we’ll do our very best to help you.
Keep in mind, when it comes to our Limited Editions, they really are limited! Popular Limited Editions of the past, like Lady Luck or Last Vatted Grain, have all gone to good homes and even we can’t help source these bottles.
However, you may be able to find them on some of the better whisky auction websites.
Good luck!
