Smokehead has gone and finished its Islay single malt Scotch whisky (from an undisclosed distillery) in casks that have previously held Caribbean rum! If you're a fan of salty and sweet flavour combinations, you're in for a treat.
Previously had single malt and sherry cask so wanted this to have a go. I don't know if I had a bad bottle or is this a bad whisky. Can't pick anything from the nose except smoke the palate is oak and alcohol. Almost like a new make.... Considering the price this is not worth your time. Will not try again.
Here's to your dad. This is a terrific sip for the price. Not many rum finished malts with this mich peatiness. Ardbeg could release something like this and it would be lapped up.
My Dad was a WW2 submariner and of course his favourite tipple was rum. I can't stand the stuff - gives me heartburn. Today ((9th January) is the 81st anniversary of the sinking of his submarine (HMS Starfish) and I thought I'd raise a toast to my Dad and his submarine. Couldn't face straight rum so this was a compromise! Not disappointed with this at all - I could become a rum drinker by default! I think my Dad would have like it too!
