Hedonism is unusual in the Scotch whisky world: a 100% Scotch grain whisky. It is very rare to see 100% grain whisky bottling, even in Scotland.

Going back 100 years, grain whisky brands were more common, but they were overtaken in popularity by the big brands of blended Scotch, which comprised both grain whisky and malt whisky. Today, most Scotch grain whisky gets blended into the big brand names, typically at young ages.

For Hedonism, they search for very old casks of Scotch grain whisky, typically over 20 years in age. And they only bottle Hedonism once or twice a year, when they find casks with the right flavour profile.

Rich, Sweet, Alluring: When good Scotch grain whisky is aged in good quality American oak casks, the results can be stunning: a rich, sweet, alluring whisky, redolent of vanilla, pastry cream and/or coconut. You’ll find all these things in their Hedonism bottling's. We believe that great Scotch grain whisky is the little known treasure of the Scotch whisky industry.

The Limited Release Range is based on a philosophy of producing small-lot, single batch Scotch whiskies created from extraordinary casks. Some whiskies in this range they produce on an annual, limited basis Hedonism, others are one-offs. In this range, they can display some magnificent creations, no matter how small the quantity.
