Smokehead Blast Sherry Cask - 46% 70cl

Smokehead Sherry Cask Blast is a peaty Islay single malt that has well and truly earned its name.

Blasted by rich, sweet and spicy Spanish sherry casks, it has emerged as fiery, explosive, heavy hitting dram that has even turned our skull red.

It might well be the exact, highly unusual taste you’ve been waiting for. It might be a cannonball careering towards you that you’re keen to avoid.

Either way, Smokehead have taken their ‘brilliant rebellious’ mantra to a whole new level!

Palate: Thick peat then fruitier, creamier feel - soft rich oak, soothing custard and vanilla. The hit of oily black smoke, with a rich, heavy mouthcoating peaty feel. Then along comes a sweet sticky flavour if barbecued banana, tangy sultanas and dried fruits.

Finish: The peat returns, just as you hoped. This time it's brought some authentic Spanish sherry oakiness with it, pleasingly and disturbingly sweet. And one last sharp salty reminder that you're not dealing with the ordinary here.
