About this deal

Palate Oily and subtly spicy at first, before notes of earthy vanilla pod and chocolate-covered raisins develop. Each time you indulge in a pour, you're sharing a dram with the islanders who played a role in crafting it. The distillery use lightly-peated malt which produces a light whisky with an almost oily taste to it. Jura whisky is available in a variety of single malts and vatted malts and Jura Superstition is a personal favourite amongst the staff here at Hard To Find Whisky. Delmé-Evans was most involved with Jura, however,remaining on the board until his retirement in 1975.

Nose Zesty wafts of fresh lemon peel and candied orange open things up followed by mint leaves and blossom. It has the subtle smoke characteristic of Jura's excellent Island single malts, with robust vanilla and an intense kick of sherried sweetness underneath. You should also note that the picture images show only our serving suggestions of how to prepare your food - all table accessories and additional items and/or ingredients pictured with the product you are purchasing are not included.Made by a tiny island community, on an island where the 200 residents are outnumbered by some 5,000 deer, Jura distillery makes a surprisingly light whisky - expertly balancing the sweet and the smoky. I initially tried this neat and the nose was smokey with a sweetness not unlike peat, a little bit of water allowed the chocolate and coffee through as well as hints of ginger and orange with the smoke more in the background. Part of the new core range of whiskies launched by Isle of Jura in early 2018, this 10 year old expression takes the place of Jura Origin. Jura whisky is made using the crystal clear waters that run off ‘The Paps of Jura’, the tallest mountain range on the isle.

Single malt distilleries often take pride in their craftsmanship and their adherence to traditional production methods. Winding through lush countryside and tracing the shores, it truly is a beautifully scenic route to our distillery.Palate: Oily and moreish with spices - cinnamon and cloves - with an underlying salted caramel depth.

This crafty combo of casks imparts a delightful layering of vanilla, caramel, tropical fruit, and warming, prickly spice – a splendid dram for sipping at the end of a long day. The palate is rich and full-bodied with black forest fruits and some smoky notes, before a bitter chocolate aspect and rich espresso finish.Not sure if anyone else got it but this unmistakable tropical fruit/mango finish with a hint of pepper.

Some of the tallest stills of any island distillery are used to distil the spirit, adding to the purity of the whisky. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Single malt whisky does have a distinct and pronounced flavor profile, often with a depth of flavor and a high degree of complexity which some connoisseurs may interpret as “better”.Light peat, brown sugar and orange on the nose leads to smooth burnt toffee taste, with softer citrus and coffee on the finish. Sweet and balanced on the palate without smoke for me, and on the finish a delightful apple, with crumble.
