Ian Macleod Distillers Limited has been in existence since 1933 and is still entirely owned by the Scottish family. It is one of the world’s largest producers of Scotch whisky. The family-owned company has an impressive portfolio of first-class brands, including Smokehead. In addition to Scotch whisky and single malts, the range includes gins, rums, vodkas and liqueurs.
Smokehead is a full-bodied and intensely peaty whisky. The flavours are fresh, fruity and powerful. Notes of sherry, iodine, toffee, smoke and sea salt fight for attention. Smokehead Original impresses with particularly smoky, earthy and spicy notes and hints of honey. Then there is the “High Voltage” at 58% alcohol, which impresses with its creamy, nutty flavours and a smoky finish. Smokehead also offers a range of innovative bottlings, including Rum Cask Rebel, Twisted Stout, Tequila Terminado and Sherry Cask Blast. All Smokeheads have one thing in common: they are not for the faint-hearted.
