I haven't cracked it open yet, but I'm hearing good things, I picked up a bottle of Smokehead Sherry Bomb...should be good. I'm saving that for the next time he and I get together as the Lagavulin is already the star of the show tonight and it doesn't need competition. It also runs about $150 or so a bottle, so I'm hoping I didn't get fleeced. Undisclosed distillery (save that its an Islay one) and no age statement. None of that really matters though as long as its good.

I have heard good things about Smokehead, although I have not had the opportunity to try it yet. I generally like the sherried islays though (Laphroig PX cask and a few of the Ardbeg day releases)
