Compass Box "Great King Street - Artist & Glasgow Blend" Scotch Whisky Set

Step into the Compass Box “Great King Street – Artist & Glasgow Blend” set—a duo that captures the essence of Edinburgh’s artistry and Glasgow’s bold whisky tradition. This limited Scotch whisky pairing features Artist Blend (formerly “Artist’s Blend”) alongside Glasgow Blend, each bottled at 43% ABV, non-chill-filtered, and natural color. Artist Blend is a silky homage to Edinburgh's creative pulse, blending fruity malt from the Highlands (approx. 55%) with Lowland grain aged in first-fill bourbon barrels. Imagine orchard fruit, salted caramel, baking spices, and a plush, creamy mouthfeel framed by soft vanilla and citrus zest. Expect bold smoke, rich spice, dried fruit, and a full, lingering finish reminiscent of fruitcake and sea breeze. Together, these two expressions form a balanced set: one refined and playful, the other bold and smoky. Stylish, versatile, and harmonious—this pairing offers exceptional value for Scotch lovers and collectors alike.

Artist Blend: Whether sipped neat, used as the base for a cocktail, or paired with other tasty morsels, take your inspiration from the artist on the front of the label and allow your creative impulses free rein.
Glasgow Blend: Full, rich and smoky on the palate, with notes of sticky toffee pudding, Sherry wine character and impressions of a coal fire, Glasgow Blend shines in combination with rich cheeses and cured meats.

Pair Artist Blend with crème brûlée, pear tart, or honey-roasted nuts to echo its creamy fruit and vanilla layers.
Pair Glasgow Blend with smoked meats or a fruitcake dessert to balance its smoky-sherry depth.

Mix both in cocktails—Artist Blend shines in highballs or Collins, while Glasgow Blend elevates whisky-forward serves like Penicillins or Boulevardiers.
