Smokehead is a superb, cult single malt from Ian MacLeod. Just a massive, thick peat smoke rich dram. Plenty of great south Islay character.

Got this as a christmas present 5ish years ago. It has an overpowering bad artifical smokey almost plasticy taste. Even after 5 years it hasen't mellowed. This is undrinkable rubbish, and i would never get it again.
Not a fan I'm afraid. Given a bottle as a Christmas present. I'm usually a big Islay/peaty whisky fan, but this had a strange lingering sourness to it that I couldn't get passed and became quite sickly.
This is a truly bad whisky. Thin, artifical smoke taste, no depth or complexity without it. Like Vat 69 with liquid smoke added.
This was only my second foray into peated Islay whiskey (Laphroaig SELECT was my first). I found this was really flavoursome. Not for all folk but I liked the in your face flavours and smells. It is also surprisingly smooth, I felt no real burn on the way down. I would highly recommend a try.
Does exactly what it says on the tin! Intensely, beautifully smokey, but surprisingly balanced and well-rounded as well once you delve beyond the smoke. Adding a drop of water tones down the initial impact and releases gentler, more subtle notes.
