The Smokehead SHERRY BOMB is a full-bodied Islay single malt Scotch whisky, bottled at 48 per cent in a 0.7-litre bottle presented in a high-quality tin. This limited edition comes from the Smokehead range, launched in 2006 by the independent whisky company Ian Macleod Distillers, and is aimed at lovers of intense Islay whiskies. As is typical for Smokehead, the exact origin of the distillery used remains a well-kept secret. For the SHERRY BOMB, the whisky is matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry casks, allowing the powerful peaty smoke to blend with intense sherry aromas. The whisky is bottled without chill filtration, ensuring that its natural texture and full flavour spectrum are preserved. The result is an expressive Islay single malt with exceptional depth and a distinctive interplay of smoke, fruit and spice.


The Smokehead SHERRY BOMB combines the typical maritime character of an Islay whisky with the intense influences of the Oloroso sherry casks. Powerful peaty smoke meets dark fruits, sweet spices and subtle chocolate notes, creating a complex and full-bodied whisky. This limited-edition bottling is particularly suited to connoisseurs who appreciate smoky single malt Scotch whiskies with a pronounced sherry influence.
