Our whiskyfriend Serge Valentin already tasted the sister-cask 2867 - here are his tastingnotes : ( Thank you Serge )

Speyburn 21 yo 1978/1999 (58.8%, OB, cask #2867) A very serious bottling by a very serious distillery. This is no laughing matter people. Colour: Bronze. Beautifully nervous, resinous, earthy sherry. Rich, nutty and redolent with notes of aged balsamico, rancio, dunnage and damp sackcloth. Remarkably clean and luscious sherry. Notes of cherry liqueur, Darjeeling tea, black pepper and mushroom powder. Quite marvellous! With water: More earthiness! Coal hearths, many dried herbal notes, aged yellow Chartreuse, a touch of aged Sauternes. Really beautiful. Mouth: Dense dark fruits. Notes of dates, prunes, sultana puree, salted dark chocolate, chocolate limes, molasses, caramelised brown sugar and strawberry jam. Perfect, pin sharp earthiness, a lick of tropical fruit and some star anise and Chinese five spice. With water: A dollop of prune juice, olive oil, camphor, green fruits and some very lean, slightly saline cured meat. Finish: Long, earthy, resinous, green and dark fruits, more rancio and sparkling spiciness. Comments: Probably the best Speyburn I’ve ever had. No joke! SGP: 641 - 91 points. Jonny: 90 points.
