Tasting Notes
Smokehead Extra Rare 1l is an intense and robustly flavored Islay single malt whisky that packs a serious punch of peat and smoke. The nose greets you with a enticing blend of sherry sweetness, malty richness, and cool, maritime smokiness that evokes images of old ropes and tar on the beach. The palate is an explosion of bold, spicy peat, thick clouds of smoke, coal tar, and a hint of iodine, balanced by a touch of honey sweetness, zesty lemon, and a medicinal note reminiscent of sticking plasters. The finish lingers with a long, smoky presence, accompanied by notes of toffee brittle and tangy fruits, leaving a lasting impression on the palate. This travel retail exclusive from Ian Macleod is a true flavor powerhouse, offering an unapologetically smoky and peaty experience that will delight ardent peat lovers.
