Spiced rum with a hint of pineapple, slightly grassy at points, dense malt loaf.
Gingerbread, milk chocolate and hints of sultana.
Lasting cinnamon warmth and a touch of oily walnut.

Lovely whisky, well rounded and an absolute joy to drink.
Lovely and smooth. Will be buying another one. If you like Glencogne, Glenlivet, Dalwhinnie you like this one. Best Jura to date.
I had a dream of this at the distillery last week. I’ve never been a fan of the distillery and hadn’t intended to buy a bottle. This changed my mind. A lovely smooth whisky with just enough peat to take the sweetness off the sherry finish.
Having tasted far too little at a tasting, my first impression was of a velvety, smooth whisky, which transfered effortlessly from tongue to throat leaving behind a notion of bagpipes and castanets. The finish, I recall, left me wanting more.
