An American, transplanted to the UK and working for a large distiller, he wanted to do things differently to bring the joys of Scotch whisky to more people. So, he set up a different kind of Scotch whisky 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 quality. He originally launched the business from his kitchen, but today, over a decade later, Compass Box has an office and Blending Room in London, its own stocks of maturing whiskies in Scotland, and just over a dozen employees. In an industry that has steadfastly remained committed to ‘the way we’ve always done things’, at Compass Box we focus relentlessly on creativity, process innovations, and exploring the many ways we all can enjoy the pleasures of Scotch whisky. With more spectrum of flavour and style than any other spirit, we believe Scotch whisky is one of the world’s great drinks. We're here to help ensure it stays that way for generations to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2019-06-14T12:22:11-04:00","created_at":"2019-06-14T12:22:11-04:00","vendor":"ConciergeUSA","type":"Whiskey","tags":["Proof_75 - 100 (37.5 - 50% ABV)","Type_Whiskey"],"price":29999,"price_min":29999,"price_max":29999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":29066343252079,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Compass Box Stranger \u0026 Stranger Scotch Whiskey","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":29999,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/compass-box-stranger-and-stranger-spirit.jpg?v=1560529430"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/compass-box-stranger-and-stranger-spirit.jpg?v=1560529430","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Compass Box Stranger \u0026 Stranger Scotch Whiskey - CaskCartel.com","id":2056188854383,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.638,"height":940,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/compass-box-stranger-and-stranger-spirit.jpg?v=1560529430"},"aspect_ratio":0.638,"height":940,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/compass-box-stranger-and-stranger-spirit.jpg?v=1560529430","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhiskey: Compass Box Stranger \u0026amp; Stranger\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRenegade Master Blender John Glaser’s newest release is so radical we can’t even call it Scotch.
