Comments: 

Sweeter Glenlochy, some sherried character, but slowly decays into the usual peppered honey and ashy, smoky finish. I’m definitely a fan of this by now, it’s like licking a piece of wet charcoal. Doesn’t sound too pleasant, but that’s one of the joys of whisky, some taste experiences that you’d never partake of can indeed be bottled.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
