On Friday 15th June Compass Box is embarking on a journey from Inverness to Brighton, via 8 cities, 8 Whisky Shops and 8 different tastings, in an attempt to set a whisky tasting world record and raise money for charity along the way.

Compass Box were ssuccessful in there World Record whisky tasting attempt but unfortunately the people at Guinness were unable to process the World Record attempt before it actually took place....but kindly replied to Compass Box three days afterwards (!) to confirm that it would have been a new world record category for them. So it's the "World Record' that wasn't...
