Glen Elgin

Not your every day blended whisky from Compass Box

Filed under: Spirits

After visiting dozens of distilleries and refining his taste, John Glaser sat down in his home and began mixing whisky. Before he knew it, he decided to begin marketing his blends by buying special casks from Scottish distilleries and selling them under the brand name of Compass Box Crafted Whiskies. Picking some of the best aged grains, he has created whisky with outstanding profiles. The Compass Box line includes blended Scotch in addition to various vatted malts. There are also limited edition whiskies such as Orangerie, the once a year orange and spice-infused whisky we mentioned back when it was available in December. Try The Peat Monster. It is a vatted malt made with Caol Ila and Ardmore malts, 92 proof at $45.
