Smokehead

Smokehead is a heavily peated, undisclosed Islay single malt from the independent bottler Ian Macleod Distillers. The maker does not name the source distillery — what matters is the profile: uncompromising, smoky and coastal.

Smokehead built its following as an affordable, no-nonsense peat monster for smoke lovers. The core is a no-age-statement bottling, joined by editions such as High Voltage (higher ABV) and sherry- or rum-cask finishes.
