Compass Box Hedonism The Muse

A limited edition version of Compass Box's excellent Hedonism, bottled to celebrate women in whisky – and that, for the first time, the company employs more women than men. The heart of this blended grain whisky is 'the muse cask', a butt discovered by Compass Box that contained unknown, pre-blended whiskies matching the quality and flavour profile of a Hedonism whisky. It is honeyed, spicy and fruity, with a notable presence of vanilla. Try pairing it with salted caramel.

Hedonism was Compass Box's inaugural bottling in 2000 and is thought to have been the first whisky with a woman on the label. The lead blender on the project was Jill Boyd, Compass Box's first female whisky blender.
