The Smokehead 'Sherry Bomb' from Ian Macleod's certainly lives up to its name. A powerful Islay single malt from an unknown distillery which has been matured entirely in Oloroso Sherry casks, it boasts thick peat and custard aromas. Heavy, oily black smoke mingles on the palate with sticky barbecued bananas, tangy sultanas and dried fruit, finishing with a salty sweet smoke tang. A heavy hitting dram for those who refer to them selves as 'peat freaks'.
