Finish: Medium. Smoke, leather, wet stones, black tea. 

Comments: 

One of the last drams of Glenlochy, surely. This one is scarily drinkable at 60.1%. I took the decision not to add water, and to enjoy it fully flavoured at cask strength. Smoky and 'hard', but not harsh. Salt caramel on the nose that melts away to grassy smoky loveliness.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
