Smokehead 15 yo - Islay Single Malt Scotch Whiskey

Special features: This limited-edition bottling, aged for 15 years, expands the renowned Smokehead series with a more mature, complex character. The combination of intense peat notes with select citrus and herbal nuances makes this Islay malt a truly expressive representative of its kind.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Dense and oily with a phenolic, salty presence. Preserved lemon and mineral nuances lead to grilled fish and herbs like rosemary and thyme, embedded in campfire smoke.
• Palate: Ash and salt continue, followed by sweet citrus fruits, fine vanilla ice cream and barley, harmoniously interwoven with earthy peat that characterizes the taste.
• Finish: A long, smoky aftertaste with notes of lemon peel and sea spray rounds off the impression.

Distillery/Bottler: Smokehead is produced by Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd, a long-established independent bottler from Scotland. The exact origin of the Islay distillery remains anonymous, which is common practice for many Smokehead bottlings. Ian Macleod emphasizes strong, high-quality single malts with a distinctive profile, with Smokehead particularly appealing to lovers of intensely smoky whiskies.
