Be sure to show some love for the company that brought you today's bottle!

https://www.compassboxwhisky.com/whiskies/glasgow-blend 

• Compass box is not one of a kind when it comes to the world of Scotch. It is a blending company, which is how several distilleries got their start in scotland 
• Think Bourbon Brand Companies 
  • Nulu/Bardstown Bourbon/Smokewagon
• They consider themselves ‘Whiskymakers’ 
  • a word they invented 
  • A Whiskymaker is someone who feels compelled to make things better - to ask questions, to challenge, to experiment. A Whiskymaker is different from a distiller, and more than a blender.
• If they were a bourbon company, I would be bashing them for this! But, again, majority of blended scotch companies started this way 
• History of Compass box
  • Back in 2000, John Glaser was working for a large UK distiller when he realized that there was so much that hadn’t yet been explored in the world of Scotch whisky.
  • So, he started Compass Box, an inventive 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 deliciousness.
  • Originally working from his kitchen, Compass Box has grown over the years and now has two dedicated Blending Rooms in London. 
  • They have their own stocks of maturing whiskies in Scotland and a team of over 15 hugely enthusiastic whisky-lovers. 
• The bottle: 
  • 100% malted Barely
  • Blend of:
    • 64.7% Caol Ila (cull Eela)
    • 35% Laphroaig
    • Less than 1% Highland Malt Blend

Intro: 

• I know I have said it before, but Beam Suntory is one of my favorite companies in the whiskey world and yet again, they did not disappoint with their latest release of Basil Hayden! 

Body:

• May of last year, Fred Noe announced that he was naming his son, Freddie Noe as master distiller
  • Which makes him the 8th generation master distiller in the beam family
• Freddie is known for his creation of the Little Book series, which is my all time favorite series
  • You could understand my excitement when I heard that he was the master behind the latest release.
• Crafted in 1992 by Booker Noe as part of the Small Batch collection, Basil Hayden introduced a more subtle side of bourbon compared to its counterparts.
  • Named after the late Master Distiller Basil Hayden Sr.
• The thing that excites me the most about this bottle is who was responsible for it. 
  • Freddie Noe might be one of the first master distillers, who I would consider to be a master blender first. 
  • I wonder if they are tight lipped on what red wine was used because there were multiple types? 
• Little book is blended by percentages of different whiskies so, with how perfectly blended and well rounded this bottle is, why couldn’t this be blended similarly with different percentages of basil hayden finished in different wine casks?
• I think that naming freddie noe might prove to be a game changer in the whiskey world. 
  • I think we should expect to see some mind blowing releases from Beam Suntory
