It looks PersistentTopics already exposed CompressType of the message, but Message API didn't expose the method of getting compressType.
Maybe we need a PIP for the issue, or cast Message<byte[]> to MessageImpl:

List<Message<byte[]>> messages = admin.topics.peekMessages("topic", "sub", 10);
for (Message<byte[]> msg : messages) {
    MessageImpl<byte[]> impl = (MessageImpl<byte[]>) msg;
    MessageMetadata metadata = impl.getMessageBuilder();
   System.out.println(metadata.getCompressType());
}
