Celebrating Our First Decade
 
We prefer to think of it as the beginning of our second decade rather than an anniversary celebration, but no matter how you look at it, Compass Box turns ten years old in 2010.

What are we doing this year to mark the milestone?  You’ll see at least two special, limited release whiskies, one a single grain whisky (you read that correctly) that is both an homage to the now-closed Cambus distillery and to our very first bottling; plus the return of Flaming Heart with a stunning new label that will further push the boundaries for Scotch whisky label design.

Also this year, we’re planning several special events, including retrospective tastings of some of our ‘greatest hits’ from the 39 whiskies we have created since we started out; some special ‘ultimate’ whisky dinners in select cities around the world; and a few other things we’re working at pulling off…

…all designed to remind everyone what our business has been about for these first ten years and, more importantly, what we will continue to do into our second decade:  sharing (in our own inimitable way) the joys of great Scotch whisky with more people.

Final Thought From John

“We recently had a wonderful, cheery email message from a new Compass Box fan who was delighted by her first experience of Hedonism.  It was the kind of feedback that reminds us of why we do what we do.  She described Hedonism as ‘better than breathing air and better than s*x.’ [ed. Note: we’re not being prudes here with this asterisk; blame the firewalls]. Now… such a comparison will obviously depend on the air quality where you live, (and other factors in your life), but I loved this message, nonetheless!”
