| Just 35cl to taste |
I just had to get this half bottle of Jura having just watched 3
Men in a Boat-in Scotland, Rory McGarth spent some time at the Jura distillery,
and despite his usual comic antics the message came across very clearly!
A core bottling from the Isle of Jura's only distillery. This 10
year old apparently exhibits the distillery's classic oily, briny
characteristics.
The nose has a freshness with notes of damp hay and soft, malty
cereal notes. A touch of peat with gentle oak and arak with blossom tones. The
palate is thick and full with more cereal, this time a barley fudge sweetness
creeps in with creamy smoothness and a touch of aniseed. The finish is long
with peppy winter spice.
