Try LAPHROIG single malt.  You cant get more smoky if that's the flavor you
want.  The pepper infusion might tone it down a bit even.  If you want a
lighter whiskey with smoke, try CRAGGANMORE.


This thread got me to thinking of why I like some Whiskys in particular over
others, and the common denominator seems to be the amount of 'peat-iness' in
the drink. Two favourites for this are the Glenlivet, and probably my fave,
Bowmore. Both are very peaty and give the whisky a wonderful 'smoky' taste,
which is how I like my chiles, very smoked...chipotle being my favourite at
the moment.
