Smokehead Sherry Cask Blast
Currently unavailable
- Origin
- Islay, Scotland
Aroma:
Dense peat lets you know you're dealing with a serious Islay Single Malt. Then a fruitier, creamier feel - soft, rich oak, comforting custard and vanilla. But don't get too comfortable - this is just the beginning.
Taste:
Strap yourself in and brace for oily, black smoke with a rich, heavy, peaty mouthfeel. Then comes a sweet, sticky taste of grilled banana (yes, really), zesty sultanas and dried fruit. Told you it was different.
Finish:
The peat returns, just as you hoped/feared. This time it's brought authentic Spanish Sherry oak with it, pleasingly and unsettlingly sweet. And a final sharp, salty reminder that this is no ordinary dram.
