Comments: 

Another Glenlochy, showcasing another facet of the whisky. This one has the honey and pepper spice, but not quite the charcoal ash. There’s a savoury herbal sweetness, like Chinese herbal soups, particularly those featuring Chinese angelica. Strange and wonderful.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
