Description
The Smokehead Twisted Stout Islay Single Malt 43% Vol. 0.7 l is an unconventional bottling that combines the intense smoky character of a classic Islay single malt with an unusual stout cask finish. This combination gives the whisky an extraordinary depth, where strong peat meets velvety chocolate flavors. Produced on Islay, this single malt displays the typical maritime spice, medicinal smokiness and distinctive strength of the island, but is interpreted in a completely new way by the sweet-malty accents of the stout casks. The blend of smoky intensity, chocolate, toffee and roasted malt notes makes this edition one of the most unique variations in the Smokehead range.
The partial finish in stout casks gives the whisky a soft, almost creamy sweetness, which contrasts with the earthy smokiness and creates a long-lasting, multi-layered interplay of aromas. The combination of strong Islay smoke and dark beer aromas creates a taste profile that is unexpected, edgy and absolutely full of character. The Smokehead Twisted Stout represents a modern interpretation of the Islay style that will appeal to lovers of intense and experimental whiskies. (automated translation)

The Smokehead Twisted Stout is ideal on its own or with a small drop of water to intensify the dark chocolate and malt notes.

Excellent dessert partners are chocolate fondant, coffee ice cream, dark chocolate or caramel cookies. It also shows its strong personality in cocktails such as Smoky Stout Old Fashioned or Smoky Highballs. Its long-lasting, striking balance of smoke and sweetness makes it a strong companion for intense moments of pleasure. (automated translation)
