The fourth bottle in the series of 4 limited release bottles by the Scapegrace distillery. A limited run of 2,274 bottles this whisky is made from New Zealand Laureate grain and as aged in Bulgarian oak casks. Scapegraces Master Distiller, Anthony Lawry, describes the whisky as having flavours of baked apples and stewed plums. Vanilla sponge dessert.

First impression of fiery peat kicks things off, naturally. But then comes a sweetness - burnt marshmallows, charred pineapple, banana and bacon. The full-on flavour of briny, oily, intense smoke hits hard but doused quickly with a spoonful of honey and lemon. And when the dust settles the smoky dying embers of toasted oak remains. Along with just a hint of fruity aftermath.

Smokehead Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is intensely rich yet subtly sweet. Smokehead embodies a wild spirit and appeals to those with an appreciation for heavy, earthy peat. With immense smoke and notes of sea salt and spice, this is a vigorous whisky that stands out from the crowd.

This is a round and sweet blend with a refreshing citrus character and a spicy finish.

A classic Island whisky from the oldest distillery in Skye that delivers a rich dried-fruit sweetness, with strong barley-malt flavours and a peaty, peppery finish.

An inviting nose where barbeque smoke and cloves are intermingled with fresh notes of butterscotch and orange peel. On the pallet a fascinating blend of Applewood smoke, honey and all spice are married with stewed pears and fresh grilled pineapple. This whiskey finishes with the return of a savoury smoke over a lingering wood undertone, which combines delightfully with notes of salted caramel.

This limited release is triple distilled in traditional copper pot stills and made from the finest Irish barley. The first new release to come from the Teeling whiskey distillery, the first new distillery in Dublin in over 125 years.
