    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/SmokewagonThey 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 boxBack 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 BarelyBlend of:64.7% Caol Ila (cull Eela)35% LaphroaigLess than 1% Highland Malt BlendSupport the showWebsite:www.whiskeychaserspod.com

    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 distillerWhich makes him the 8th generation master distiller in the beam familyFreddie is known for his creation of the Little Book series, which is my all time favorite seriesYou 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 Support the showWebsite:www.whiskeychaserspod.com

    Intro: 
    What are we drinking Flavor/tasting notesLikes dislikes Recommend to buy or leave on the shelf? Why are we drinking it?

    How did they get their start? 
    This is a family run distillery out of Indiana It is not an MGP productThe name they picked was based on the road you would find them on. 

    What is their mashbill? 
    Simple 100% sweet corn that they grow themselves on their own farm

    What makes this unique?
    There are no other bourbons out there that are made of 100% sweet corn Other blends are corn but not sweet corn Let alone home grown by the distillery 

    What is worth the price?
