Whisky Whiskey 99: Smokehead High Voltage Single Malt Scotch Whisky

13 July, 2025

CURRENT

The last of the Smokeheads from the Gift Pack I acquired is now up for try. The High Voltage is a 58% ABV offering and it lives up to its name. I look at some of the history of Ian Macleod, the distilleries they own, and that they don’t as well as mention some other Smokehead offerings. In the end though, as I review this Scotch…I can’t say that they didn’t warn me.
Duration 11 minutes and 35 seconds
