Description
The Smokehead has a smoking skull, the time-honoured symbol of rock, on the tin. A rich, seaweedy and intensely peaty Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Smokehead is not for the faint hearted. With immense fresh and fruity flavours that burst with notes of sherry, iodine, toffee, smoke and sea salt, Smokehead hits the palate like a cannonball.
Tasting Notes
| Nose |
| Distillery: Heavy smoke and peat. Amazing richness. Lemon, fresh ginger, plum jam. Salty and spicy. |
| Taste |
| Distillery: Like a cannonball hits the palate at once with cocoa, peat and some honey sweetness then explodes with peppery spice and more earthy peat. Spreads to all the areas of your mouth with more peat and light sweetness. |
| Finish |
| Distillery: Even more peat, spice, mandarin then dries up. When you think its all over the peat comes back to hit you again. |
