Single Malt Scotch Whisky can be defined by tasting style. To assist your choice we have selected and sorted single malt whiskies with a distinct taste profile, from the soft delicate whiskies to the heavily peated phenolic whiskies and put them into pages that describe them best:
Smokey Phenolic Whisky
These whiskies can have tasting notes from other categories. However, incorporate a certain phenol level that give them an intensely peaty, smoky or medicinal quality. Tasting notes often include phenolic, medicinal, TCP, smoky, seaweed, pungent, creosote, carbolic and bonfires. This is just a small sample of tasting notes of whiskies in this category. They may have one, more or all of these attributes.
