The Smokehead Twisted Stout Islay Single Malt 43% Vol. 0.7 l + GB is a striking bottling from the Smokehead range that combines the intense character of a classic Islay single malt with an unusual finish in stout casks. This interplay creates an aromatic fusion of strong peat smoke, maritime notes and a dark, creamy sweetness reminiscent of chocolate and treacle toffee. The typical island intensity remains clearly present, but appears enveloped by a velvety-soft stout flavour. This modern interpretation of the Islay style combines fire, smoke and roasted sweetness in an unmistakable way, making the whisky one of Smokehead's most experimental creations.


At 43 per cent vol., the Twisted Stout is powerful, unusual and complex. Partly finished in stout casks, the whisky displays an attractive balance of smoky, spicy and sweet-malty components. The fresh sea breeze meets the dark creaminess of a strong stout beer, creating a long-lasting aromatic overall picture. The high-quality gift box further emphasises the special character of the bottling and makes it an attractive choice for lovers of intense, innovative single malts.
