A single malt made up of different ages, 13 percent of which is said to be heavily peated... It turns out Stevie was wrong, Superstition is the way!
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Initial gristy cereal gives way to evocative smoke and heady malt. It’s quite sweet and creamy, and reminds us of Chantilly cream.
Sweet and porridge-like. A cereal fest on the tongue, with hints of white pepper and black forest honey with hot buttered toast. Light and oily.
Medium length with cocoa and rice paper with hints of honey and spice on the tail.
why does packaging say limited edition when bottle is same as ordinary bottle of superstion?
Not the smoothest of malts, but the peaty chocolate intense notes came through. Personally, I prefer ledaig or dalwhinnie,( Laphroaig is close but not as rich.)
This is my favourite, I offer it to special friends only its inspired us to visit jura shortly
A superb peated Jura, and one to share in good company ( or keep to yourself if you wish ). Sweet toffee notes, explosive on the palate and a long smoky finish. Drooling at the thought.
I decided that I was going to buy a new single malt yesterday. If I had the money I'd have bought something else along with it, or sprung for a more expensive/older single malt. I had heard good things about this, so after a long period of drooling over the single malt section in a fairly local supermarket I went for this. I wasn't sure what to expect, and I wasn't taken back by the nose or the palate. I would like to come back and try it when I have more time to relax with it - I'll probably re-review it. I have to agree with one of the other reviews on here, it is more than just slightly peated, but not too much. Definately spice in there, and a subtle sweetness. Opens up well if left with a drop or two of water. The finish reminded me very much of Talisker Storm. 6/10 - I will come back to it at some point as mentioned.
