Smokehead The Rock Edition is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky bottled by Ian Macleod Distillers at 43% in a 70cl bottle. The nose is heavy with thick wood smoke, earthy peat, iodine, seaweed and brine, opening up to rich plum jam, fresh lemon, spicy ginger and a touch of caramel. On the palate, peaty heat and black pepper give way to honeyed sweetness, toffee, creamy cocoa, a little mango and a hint of sherry before the smoke returns. The finish is long, intense and very dry, with exotic spice and a note of mandarin peel.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
