Only 12,018 bottles of this whisky have been released worldwide at 46%.
In 2001 Compass Box created and released Eleuthera, its first Blended Malt. It was composed of 80% Highland malt with the rest being peated malt from Islay. 3 years into production their supplies of these base whiskies were suddenly cut off, so the whisky was retired in 2004. John Glaser, Compass Box’s creative genius, had long hoped to revive the blend, but had not been able to… until now.
John had a name he’d been saving for a special whisky, “The Lost Blend”, a reference to the O. Henry story about life in a New York Bar in the early 1900’s. The business partners in the establishment were hoping to create a blend of spirits with supernatural properties. From the Producer: “Having been blending Scotch whiskies as an amateur and a professional for the better part of 20 years, I can say with confidence that I believe there exist “magic” combinations of whiskies. For me, they are like the whisky blending equivalent of spiritual truths. And what better name to lend to our lost blend, but “The Lost Blend”!
Producer’s Tasting Note: “An elegantly complex union of two fruity Highland single malts and a peaty Islay single malt. An ethereal fruit and herbal character and a sweetness on the palate is buttressed by an underlying smokiness.”

The Glasgow Edition of Compass Box's Great King Street series is a more heavily sherried and peated blend than the original Artist's Series. The whisky has been created as a tribute to the style of blend popular in Glasgow during the 1930s.
The whisky is composed of 33% Lowland Grain with 67% malt from Islay, the Speyside and Highland. The whisky was matured in high proportion of First Fill Sherry and a mix of First and Refill American oak and a small amount of French oak.
From the Distillery: "In his 1930 book “Whisky”, Aeneas MacDonald teaches us that Glaswegians historically preferred fuller bodied and more flavour-packed whiskies than people in other parts of the world. So what better name for a whisky such as this? You’ll find here a rich vein of peaty-smokiness, underpinned by sherry cask-aged whiskies, full of dried fruit and wine character. The palate is full and round, with a sweetness typical of whiskies from our company."
About the label: "For decades, The Wellington Statue, outside Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art, has been cheekily topped by a traffic cone, something the local population has taken to heart as a symbol of their sense of humour. It has become one of Glasgow’s most iconic images, and graces our label for the Glasgow Blend."

About Blue Hanger Brand
"Blue Hanger is one of Berry Bros. & Rudd’s most beloved and distinctive whisky creations, bridging Georgian elegance with modern blending craft. Famous for his elegant dress sense and distinctive blue clothes, William “Blue” Hanger, 3rdLord Coleraine (1748–1794), became affectionately known in fashionable Georgian London circles as “Blue Hanger” and was considered one of the best-dressed men of his day — a true dandy — as well as a loyal patron of Berry Bros. & Rudd in the end of 18th century. Named in his honour, the whisky pays tribute to this famously stylish and devoted customer, celebrating one of Georgian London’s most impeccably dressed gentlemen.
"In honour of this stylish and discerning gentleman, Berry Bros. & Rudd later created a blended malt whisky bearing his name: Blue Hanger.
The first release appeared in the 1990s (originally in very small quantities), designed as a limited-edition blend of exceptional single malts, curated to appeal to whisky connoisseurs. Thereafter, each edition was different, crafted from unique cask combinations, making every batch distinct and collectible. Each edition of Blue Hanger is numbered (e.g., 6th, 7th, 10th Release, etc.), continuing Berry Bros. & Rudd’s tradition of small-batch, handcrafted blending. The whisky has become a cult favourite among enthusiasts who appreciate subtlety, balance, and historical connection."
