Compass Box are one of the UK’s premier artisanal whisky blenders – and long-term supporters and friends of the Whisky Squad – and we’ve been offered a rare opportunity for a bunch of Squadlateers to visit their blending headquarters in Chiswick for an afternoon of learning about the art of blending, as well as making our own individual custom blended whiskies!

Chris Maybin will introduce the lucky people who manage to bag spots on this outing to some of the different flavour profiles and techniques they use to come up with their range of wildly popular whiskies, then give some pointers on how blending works based on the wealth of knowledge he’s picked up since the company’s inception in 2000, and once everyone’s bottled up their own blends there’ll be opportunities to sample some of the rare & wonderful drams from the Compass Box back catalogue.
