Compass Box Hedonism 2024 Limited Release


New Limited Release
Compass Box Hedonism Scotch 2024 Limited Release....$129.99
Our Celebration of the Deliciousness of Grain Whisky
  • Cameronbridge Distillery
  • Port Dundas
  • The Girvan Distillery
In 2000, John Glaser created the first ever Blended Grain Whisky released to the market. He called it Hedonism.
The Scotch whisky landscape was changed forever.
Over the past 23 years, Hedonism has remained a core part of the Compass Box brand, winning numerous awards and becoming a staple in many whisky fans’ cabinets.
The calibre of whiskies we need for Hedonism have grown ever harder to find, which is why our first ever expression will become a Limited Annual Release going forward. For the first batch we have turned to more mature whiskies aged almost entirely in first-fill Bourbon barrels.
Bottled at 43% ABV
Not chill-filtered
Natural Colour
Lead Whiskymaker: James Saxon

Hedonism 2024 contains the last of our stocks of grain whiskies distilled in the 1990s, a period when some of the distilleries featured used maize in their mashes. This brings an enhanced buttery weight to the overall composition.  You can expect a complex array of patisserie aromas, with exotic vanilla and clove-infused caramel. Layers of creamy custard arrive on the palate, with accents of honey and mascarpone. At the finish, a delicate citrus accent appears.
