Jura 12 Years Old

Jura 12 Years Old - S Liquor

In 2018, the Isle of Jura whisky range got a rather snazzy relaunch, which included this tasty 12 year old single malt. Distilled on the eponymous Inner Hebridean island, this expression was initially matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels, before being moved over to Oloroso sherry casks for a finishing period. A great example of Jura’s delicious malts, more than suitable as an after dinner dram.

Tasting Note

Nose: Nutty barley, white wine, cinnamon, melon.

Palate: Chocolate fudge, pear, a portion of peppery malt tucked away.

Finish: Sherbet lemons and sultanas.

Food Pairing: Lime Chili Chicken Skewers (Western), Szechuan Chili Chicken (Chinese), Chicken Kushi Yaki Grilled Chicken Skewers (Japanese)
