Compass Box is unique in the world of whisky. Founded in 2000, it is a small independent company specializing in the blending of whiskies bought from large producers. Compass Box has made this its speciality, becoming a master in its fields of blended malts, blended grains and blended whisky, with each category represented in its portfolio. It is also a company with a deep-rooted philosophy, elevating blending to a worthy, noble task, distancing itself from its industrial image and reasserting the value of its craft as a ‘whiskymaker'.

Myths & Legends I is Compass Box’’s first single malt. It is a blend of several malts produced at the same distillery in the Northern Highlands, as is often the case for single malts. This version illustrates the whisky’’s many different facets. The blending of these two single malts with contrasting profiles is a testament to John Glaser’’s expertise. The label makes reference to this duality through the opposing figures of the women and stag.
