Description
This Islay rebel meets a rum cask cousin in a rush of explosive flavours bursting with fiery peat smoke, burnt marshmallows and softened with caramelised fruit. A epic taste adventure.
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Hanging out in Caribbean rum casks gives this Smokehead a jolt of immense smoke and fiery peat, followed by soothing citrus and tropical fruits. And is that marshmallow and bacon in there...? |
Taste |
Distillery: Face down a fearlessly rich and peaty punch, thick oils and bracing sea spray, tempered with dried spices, banana and dark wood. |
Finish |
Distillery: The safety of dry land is in sight. Notes of caramel and cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla, add a delicate contrast to the lingering smokiness. |
