Singin' in the Grain.
In 2000 John Glaser started the Compass Box Whisky Company, a firm dedicated to blending boutique Scotch Whiskies and making Scotch more approachable and relevant to more people. They are game changers, who have replaced heritage for boldness.
Compass Box Hedonism is one of the Scotch Whiskies in their signature range. It is a blended grain Scotch, produced from 100% grain Whisky (made from mostly wheat, and likely corn as well) sourced from various Scotch distilleries. It is produced only once per year, when they find casks with the right flavor profile, using top-quality single-grain Whiskies aged up to 29 years in first-fill American oak casks. Compass Box blends these grain Whiskies and matures them for an unknown period of time in first-fill American oak casks and rejuvenated American oak Hogsheads.
With Hedonism Compass Box challenges the notion that grain Scotch is only meant to be used as a filler in a blended Scotch Whisky, and shows that grain Whisky made properly using great quality oak and long-aged grain Whisky is to be fully appreciated for what it is – soft, complex and understated, with a full and creamy body. The quality of the blend of grain Whiskies is reflected in the price of the Hedonism.

Ratings & Reviews
Marwin,
A proof the tasting boxes work! Tried it, loved it and bought it. The taste is smooth and feels great, long taste but with a short bite. Enjoy!
Florette,
Great flavor complexity
Charles,
Smokey and vanilla smell. Light caramel taste. Goes down really smooth with no burn.
Michael,
It’s ok. Very average. I’d never pay what they list for it. Meh. Aroma’s fine, taste is fine, nothing spectacular.
Jonathan,
My favorite flaviar thus far. Smooth in the glass. Aroma of strong alcohol and a hint of vanilla. When tasting the flavor explodes in your mouth, a strong vanilla gives way to a oaky caramel finish that brings the perfect warmth to your palate. Leaves you urning for more!
