In 2000, we created the first ever Blended Grain Whisky released to the market. It was called Hedonism.
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.
We created a short documentary to celebrate the launch of Hedonism 2024, traversing the origins of Compass Box through the lens of our signature whisky over the years, and unearthing the story of our collaboration with acclaimed artist, Stephanie Rew.
Stephanie’s reimagining of the iconic Hedonism woman subverts the artist-muse relationship. For so long, women in paintings were passive, to be gazed upon. But in Stephanie’s reimagining, she stares directly at us. Both feminine and powerful.
