Tasting Notes

Smokehead Sherry Bomb is a bold and unapologetic single malt whisky that brings together the best of both worlds – the smoky essence of Islay peat and the rich, fruity notes of Oloroso sherry casks. As you take in the aroma, you're greeted by a captivating blend of dark chocolate, seaweed, and a hint of medicinal peat smoke, accompanied by the sweetness of prunes and the warmth of clove. On the palate, it's a symphony of flavors – BBQ smoke mingles with stem ginger, sherried peels, and a touch of sea salt, while rum-raisin ice cream adds a delightful creaminess. The finish lingers with the spicy notes of clove, a hint of red chilli flake, and the decadent sweetness of treacle. This is a whisky that doesn't shy away from its bold character, delivering a powerfully flavoursome dram that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving for more.
