Smoky whisky comes in many forms, from a delicate hint of last night’s bonfire to the bold intensity of a Texas smokehouse. This smoky character often comes from grain smoked during malting, though it can also emerge from maturation in casks previously used for smoky whisky.
While peat is the traditional choice - especially in Scotland - new distilleries worldwide are experimenting with alternative materials like mesquite, cherrywood, and heather to create their own unique smoky profiles.
