Twisted Stout

Smokehead Twisted Stout is a bold, unconventional Islay single malt that takes the brands famously smoky house style and gives it an indulgent twist through finishing in stout beer casks. Produced from heavily peated Islay whisky and then rested in rich stout-seasoned barrels, this limited-edition release combines maritime peat smoke with layers of roasted malt, dark chocolate and coffee-like richness.

The result is a whisky that is unmistakably Smokehead intense, rebellious and full of attitude yet with added depth and sweetness from the stout cask influence. It is a natural choice for adventurous whisky drinkers and fans of both peated whisky and dark beer. Tasting Notes Colour: Deep gold with warm amber tones.

Nose: Rich peat smoke rises immediately, followed by aromas of roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate and toasted barley. Hints of sea salt, caramel and burnt sugar add further complexity. Palate: Powerful and smoky. Sweet malt, cocoa and espresso notes meet earthy peat and maritime salinity. The stout cask influence brings flavours of roasted nuts, dark chocolate and a subtle creamy richness, balanced by Smokeheads signature smoky intensity.

Finish: Long, warming and smoky with lingering coffee, dark chocolate, peat and a touch of charred oak.
