Compass Box Hedonism Maximus Blended Scotch Whisky 28 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with coppery mahogany undertones and a warm, honeyed glow.

Nose

Opulent sherry-led aroma with dark plum, fig and raisin, mingling with toffee, burnt sugar and orange zest. Cocoa nibs, vanilla bean and honeyed oak weave through airy spice—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—while a subtle note of leather and tobacco adds depth. The 50.1% bloom lingers in a rich, velvet-tinged perfume that hints at indulgent, dessert-like complexity.

Palate

Opulent, full-bodied palate with a velvety, creamy texture. Ripe raisin and fig sweetness sits in sherry gloss, while dark chocolate, espresso and almond notes emerge. Polished oak, toffee and a kiss of spice weave through the middle, offering warmth and complexity. The grain-driven backbone supports a long, luxurious finish, lingering with dried fruit and cacao.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish that coats the palate with dark fruit, raisin and cocoa, slowly giving way to espresso and vanilla. Sherry richness lingers, braided with oak and spice, leaving a warm, refined tail that slowly fades.
