It might be reasonably assumed that Jura would make a peaty whisky. After all, the island is smothered in the stuff. It was, however, built in the 1960s with backing from a major blender, Mackinlay, and at that time light whisky was what was needed. Jura, therefore, conformed to the requirements of the market.
Jura 12 Year Old
46% abv
Vol- 70cl
An intense and vibrant Jura whisky, aged for 12 years for a reassuringly rich flavour. Just like the 10 Year Old, Jura 12 Year Old was matured in ex-bourbon casks for two more years and then was finished in aged Oloroso Sherry Casks. It will be interesting to see what difference those two extra years and the aged Vs regular sherry casks made here
Notes: dark chocolate. honey, walnut and soft citrus.
Palate: Coffee, salted bananas, liquorice, brown sugar.
Finish: freshly ground coffee and dark chocolate.
