Product Information

It’s hardly surprising, with taste in music being every bit as subjective as the preferences of the palate, and because here we try to focus on what is in the glass, rather than any potential distraction.

I found it worth a visit because I spend a lot of time wishing I was in Scotland, and it satisfied that longing of mine for a few moments. Matured in American White Oak ex-bourbon barrels and finished in the finest Oloroso Sherry casks from Jerez, Spain, Jura 12 boasts a bold flavour profile that is rich with smoky sherry sweetness.

Sometimes, it is easy to forget that the whisky world doesn’t revolve around me and my palate, however much I’d like it to. Bourbon cask maturation and an aged oloroso sherry finish produce a honeyed sweetness that offer notes of warm spice, banana, soft citrus and a finish of freshly ground coffee and dark chocolate.

The stunning scenery of the Isle of Jura served as a backdrop on the lid of a box that contained a bottle of Jura 12 Year Old, 5cl of Jura 18, a branded hip flask, a mini painting (since acquired by my kids) and a further unexpected treat.

Whilst the market is there for it, they’re going to continue producing whisky in a style to supply it, and that’s OK. This 12 year old spends most of that time mellowing in American ex-bourbon casks before the finishing takes place in oloroso sherry butts. In the meantime, I can only conclude that I have moved beyond Jura’s target market and focus my attention elsewhere.

Well aged Peated Jura is occasionally released by Signatory Vintage and then recent Peated distillery cask was tasty. Jura Distillery is located on… wait for it… the isle of Jura, a sparsely populated island off the west coast of Scotland (right above Islay).

So, when I came to the Jura Aged 12 Years, I expected to find a noteworthy step up from these entry malts. Over time, I’ve taken a greater interest in what I’m drinking, my whisky knowledge has improved, my taste has developed, and my budget has increased.
