Compass Box Limited Annual Release 2026 Hedonism Blended Grain Scotch Whisky

🥃 Compass Box Hedonism 2026 Edition

Blended Grain Scotch Whisky | 46% ABV

The 2026 release of Hedonism marks a bold new chapter for this iconic whisky, introducing antique sherry casks for the first time. The result is a deeper, more layered expression that builds on Hedonism’s trademark silky texture while adding richness and complexity.

Expect caffè latte, butterscotch, and orange cream on the nose, followed by nougat, hazelnut, soft wood sugars, and milk chocolate on the palate. Luxurious yet balanced, this is Hedonism with added depth and maturity—still smooth, but more contemplative than ever.

Crafted by Angela D’Orazio, Lead Whiskymaker at Compass Box, this release stays true to the original vision while pushing the profile forward in a meaningful way.
