Since its inception in 2000, Compass Box Whiskey Company has been led by John Glaser, one of the most progressive and innovative whiskey blenders of his generation. “Like a winemaker blending grape varieties, we can create levels of complexity by blending whiskey,” says Glaser, who has been named “Innovator of the Year” four times by Whiskey Magazine and “Pioneer of the Year” twice times by Malt Advocate. While Glaser began his career in the industry as a marketing agent, he quickly realized that by blending quality whiskeys, he was able to create a product that was greater than the sum of its rare parts. . Compass Box's very first release was its Hedonism Whisky, a unique blend of Scottish grain whiskey. Nearly a century ago, grain whiskeys were common throughout Europe, but were overtaken in popularity when Scotland's largest distilleries began to focus on single malt whisky. “When a good Scottish grain whiskey is aged in good quality American oak barrels, the results can be stunning,” says Glaser. To celebrate the company's fifteenth anniversary, Compass Box pays homage to its inaugural release with the new limited edition Compass Box Hedonism. Quindecimus blended grain whiskey. Compass Box Hedonism Quindecimus uses grain whiskeys of varying ages from five distilleries – Dumbarton (28 years), Port Dundas (25 years and 20 years), North British (20 years) and Loch Lomond (32 years) – to create a boisterous intergenerational celebration born from the interplay between grain spirits and American oak (each whiskey used in the blend rested in American oak barrels).

The palate is bold and spicy, with notes of pepper and milk chocolate mixed with cardamom, clove and coconut, all leading to an elegant finish accented by toffee, ginger and fishing. Hedonism is where it all started for us as a company, says Glaser. This product aimed to do something different, something that no one else in the scotch world would have even considered. [Today] we are 15 years older, “maybe even a little wiser,” but we still have that restless energy that we had in 2000. The juxtaposition of flavors and weights in Quindecimus is a representation of this.
