Product Description

Smokehead Twisted Stout Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a daring, bold expression that pushes the boundaries of what an Islay whisky can be. This exciting release takes Smokehead's signature smoky, peaty character and adds a twist—literally. After maturing in ex-bourbon casks, the whisky is then sent to a stout cask afterparty, where it picks up rich, indulgent flavours that completely transform its profile.

On the nose, Smokehead Twisted Stout reveals the signature peaty smoke that fans of Islay whiskies will love, but with an added complexity of silky chocolate, treacle toffee, and a hint of citrus that tantalises the senses. The palate is big, bold, and smooth, delivering layers of smoky intensity balanced with notes of vanilla ice cream, toasted nuts, and a lingering sweetness. It's a whisky that truly marries the rugged, earthy peat of Islay with the rich, comforting flavours of stout cask maturation—resulting in a dram that’s both big and smoky, but with a touch of luxury.

At 43% ABV, this whisky is robust yet smooth, offering a uniquely satisfying finish that lingers with subtle notes of treacle and a whisper of stout. Smokehead Twisted Stout is a bold, adventurous choice for whisky lovers looking to explore something new and exciting with a little bit of edge.
