The Rum Cask Rebel is an impressive addition to the Smokehead range and a whisky that certainly lives up to its punchy branding and marketing.
When the Islay rebel meets its rum cask cousin, the familiar peaty punch of Smokehead is given a sweet and furious jolt. A new potion to light up the taste buds. A fresh concoction of unexpected flavours.
With soothing citrus and tropical fruits, distinctive fiery peat smoke and burnt marshmallow intensity, this Caribbean rum cask finish is hard to resist.
A very enjoyable single malt and a ‘must try’ for the peaty whisky fans out there.
Create some seriously decadent concoctions with this new rebel and other Smokeheads which are all available at aeclub.com.my.

Bloody Mary’s Korean Travels
Set sail on an epic journey from the west coast of Scotland to the Far East. A hair-raising, heart-stirring, tang-tastic hit that won’t quit, perhaps to set you after the night before.
25ml Smokehead High Voltage
Chopped kimchi
Jalapeno hot sauce
Smoked paprika
Celery salt
Tomato juice

Now add ice and top with tomato juice.
Garnish with pickled chili, tomato and celery, or anything you can get your hands on.
Smoky Shandy
Smokehead’s hack on a classic combo. A citrussy, briny blast of High Voltage Original cut with a fruity pale ale. Hoppy brew, happy days. One sip and you’ll never hear the word shandy the same way.
25ml Smokehead High Voltage
50/50 fruity IPA and cloudy lemonade
Fill your chosen vessel with ice. Now, it’s time for an assault of the senses, pour over a shot of High Voltage.
