Compass Box was launched in 2000 by the American John Glaser, who was previously International Marketing Director at Johnnie Walker. To promote his whisky, John travelled through London visiting pubs and bars with samples and, in idiosyncratic style, handing out business cards billing himself as “John Glaser – Whisky Zealot.” Compass Box’s modus operandi and strong work ethic is what sets them apart as an independent bottler and blender like no other. Compass Box buys individual casks and focuses on creating a craftsman-like boutique product. None of their bottlings are chill-filtered, nor is any coloring added and all are married exclusively in American oak. This brings the characteristic sweetness to the whisky. Orchard House gathers together some of the fruitiest malts Scotland has to offer, including whiskies from the Linkwood and Clynelish distilleries; it is light and refreshing, with a lot of "orchard fruit" notes with a complete lack of bitterness on the finish.
