Compass Box have always believed in doing things a little differently. Founded by John Glazer in 2000, Compass Box source malt and grain whiskies from across Scotland, and combine them in innovative ways to create exciting and idiosyncratic Scotch blends. The character of these blends cannot be defined by an age statement, nor by the individual component whiskies. The art of the whisky maker is to create something that is greater than the sum of its parts. Known for pushing the boundaries of whisky making, Compass Box have at times courted controversy, and are admired by whisky enthusiasts the world over.

It’s a difficult time right now for doing something we think is so important – getting together for great conversation. But while it’s not possible to share a bottle of Compass Box with friends in person at the moment, we can still share knowledge and explore ideas.

That’s why we’re launching what will be the first in a series of ‘Ask Us Anything’ sessions online. Keep an eye on our Instagram Stories @compassboxwhiskyco because on Tuesday 28 April we’ll be inviting you to send in your questions, then we’ll reply to them all over the following days.

SHARE QUESTIONS AND ENJOY

We’re kicking things off with the theme of whiskymaking. Our Founder and Whiskymaker John Glaser will answer all your questions – no matter how simple or technical – with updates either via Instagram Stories or with Direct Messages.

Also, while we’re here, we’d like to say thanks for the fantastic response to our fundraising campaign. There are still limited edition tops and totes available with all proceeds going to the hospitality industry, so if you haven’t already donated, we’d love your support: Kindness. Community.

Loch Lomond 2006 #18/550-12
The Whisky Shop Exclusive

The latest Whisky Shop Exclusive Single Cask has landed! Carefully selected by us, with you in mind – at £58.95, this is one of our best value offers of all time. Produced at Loch Lomond Distillery with heavily peated barley, this expression was distilled in March 2006 and matured in a single first-fill Tawny port hogshead for almost 14 years. It was then bottled in February 2020 at a natural cask strength of 53.1% VOL. Highly exclusive, just 315 bottles have been filled.

So, what does it taste like? Sweet peat and salted caramel come to the fore, with cinnamon and baked apple emerging amongst raisins and golden syrup. A hint of nutmeg and clove-studded orange mellow to reveal melted brown sugar and vanilla oak spice in the finish. Delicious. Receive a free pair of Loch Lomond Whisky Glasses when you order this bottle – while stocks last!

Slàinte!
The Wolfburn Team

The Isle of Jura distillery was founded in 1810 by Archibald Campbell. Originally, known as the Small Isles Distillery, it was renamed in 1831, and rebuilt in the early 1960’s on the original site. The name derives from the Norse for ‘deer island’, a reference to the herds of local deer that greatly outnumber the island’s tiny population of residents.

Jura single malt can offer power and complexity, but without the bold, heady smoke of whiskies their Hebridean neighbour, Islay. The whiskies are typically sweet, fruity and approachable, with a slightly coastal character. Since 2018, they have been imbued with a subtle smokiness, due to the inclusion of a small amount of peated whisky in each bottling.
