Robin Robinson
Robin Robinson has combined his background in theatre and sales with a life-long love of single malt Scotch whisky to serve as the US Brand Ambassador for Compass Box Whisky. As such, he is responsible for the sales, retail and consumer education of the brand; sales responsibilities in managing distributor relationships, budgeting and promotions; promotion of Compass Box through field marketing events such as tastings, pairing dinners, seminars, festivals and social networks; and otherwise serves as the “face” of the brand in the US in lieu of company founder and whiskymaker, John Glaser.
Robin is in demand as a lecturer on brown spirits and whisky and aside from the many “spontaneous” whisky lectures during the course of duties, has spoken at the renowned Astor Center in New York; the Culinary Institute of America and the French Culinary Institute. He has been featured in publications such as 201 Magazine and the Chicago Sun Times. He lives in New Jersey with his wife, a suburban chicken farmer, and has a daughter in college.
