Bonhams, in collaboration with Compass Box Scotch Whisky will offer Confluence as its headliner in its forthcoming Art & Alchemy of Spirits: Presenting Compass Box to Benefit the Wolfsonian, running online November 26–December 10. 

Alongside Confluence, the collaboration will also feature seven additional lots taken from the brand’s archive, ranging from iconic classics to new releases and rare, limited editions, all of which will be offered without reserve. 

Net proceeds from all lots will benefit educational programming and future exhibitions at The Wolfsonian–Florida International University, a Miami Beach-based museum, library, and research center dedicated to exploring the persuasive power of art and design.

Confluence was created in collaboration with Angela D’Orazio, World Whiskies Awards Whisky Legend, 2019 Whisky Hall of Famer, and Compass Box’s recently appointed Creative Director of Whiskymaking. Uniting the complexities of Scotch and Swedish whisky, and estimated at $10,000-$13,000, the blend aims to push the boundaries of whiskymaking.

Adding to the bottle’s uniqueness, London-based contemporary artist Mary West, renowned for her stylized landscape paintings, has created an exclusive label that blends abstract and figurative elements to evoke landscapes of Scotland and Sweden. 

Completing the bottle’s presentation, Scottish woodworker Duncan Legate, who specializes in hand-made live edge furniture, has crafted a bespoke Scottish timber display, where natural imperfections are hero-ed to echo the interplay of terroirs.

“We’re delighted to collaborate with Compass Box on such an exceptional showcase of spirits,” Sean Purce, Senior Specialist, Fine Wines and Rare Spirits at Bonhams, said in a news release. “At its center is Confluence, a one-of-one masterpiece that redefines the boundaries of whiskymaking and exemplifies a fearless approach to creativity. Where others follow well-established norms, Compass Box redraws the map, reminding us that whisky, at its finest, is not just engineered, but inspired.”

Overlapping with the auction during Art Basel Miami Beach, The Wolfsonian-Florida International University will debut Imaginarium: The Fantastical World of Compass Box and Stranger & Stranger – a month-long retrospective exhibition celebrating Compass Box’s 25-year journey of creativity and design through an immersive showcase of its most iconic whiskys, running from December 3–January 4, 2026.

The additional Compass Box offerings include:

• Compass Box The Roaring Twenties, estimated at $4,400-$5,500
• Compass Box ‘The General’, estimated at $3,000-$4,000
• Compass Box The Second Decade, estimated at $2,400-$3,200
