People
Founded in 2000, John Glaser 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.
Place
Compass Box has an office and Blending Room in London, an office on Great King Street in Edinburgh (he even named a whisky after its location!) and its own stocks of maturing whiskies in Scotland.
