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'.

Oak Cross is a blended malt from Compass Box. It is made with malt from the Highlands and Speyside (Clynelish, Dailuaine and Teaninich) matured in French oak casks (40%) and American oak casks (60%). This edition was discontinued in 2021.
