Smokehead Tequila Cask Terminado

An Overview

 

How do you launch a new whisky for a rebellious brand that doesn’t do twee tasting films? 

 

To launch a whisky with a tequila cask finish, in time for Day of the Dead, there’s the temptation to go down the stereotypical route of sugar skulls and sombreros. But that’s not Smokehead or brilliantly rebellious. 

 

Forget the trope laden whisky tasting films. We launched Tequila Cask Terminado in a way authentic to Scotland and to Mexico. A beautiful, colourful, flavourful dance between Islay whisky and its tequila soulmate. With marionette skeleton puppets rising from the dead for a last tango in a tequila cask, moving to the beat of modern Latin music.
