On the palate 15yo Jura sherry cask 46% - Spicy, but with endless nuttiness and milk chocolate. Literal liquid snickers. A spicy Snickers bar. Then some limoncello and Arancello Schnnaps. Again, then a sour note to end. #JuraWhisky

On the nose 15yo sherry cask 46% - Fresh whipped cream, cinnamon latte with almond milk, peach syrup, sugar syrup and lemon, more rounded and rich than the rest, and less sour. #JuraWhisky
Steve Rush@thewhiskywire.bsky.social · 4w agoIt’s time to move onto our fourth and final dram of the night and another drop of newness; Jura Aged 15 Years Sherry Cask Finish. What does this dish up and deliver on the nose? #JuraWhisky #BePartOfTheDramfotainment #Scotch #Whisky
One the palate for the 12 year old 46% - Spicy, very spicy, then sour. Before sweet toffee kicks in with fruit notes bouncing between peaches, blue plums, and tangerines. A tickle of frothy cappucino. Spice subsides into finish. #JuraWhisky

On the nose for the 12 year old Sherry Cask 46% - Tinned peaches in syrup, hot toddy with honey, lemon and cinnamon. Very pleasant. #JuraWhisky

One the palate 16 year old 43% - spice, oak, peach, lemon tart, kidney beans, pickle juice. I tried this at the Pot Still, and I'm on the same side of the fence this time. #JuraWhisky

On the nose 16yo 43% - Kidney beans! Rare shout. Musty with oak. Sweet, bitter. Lemon sour with caramel. #JuraWhisky
Steve Rush@thewhiskywire.bsky.social · 4w agoA sipsational start to the evening I’m sure you’ll agree. Let’s move onto our second sip of the night; Jura Aged 16 Years. What can you uncover and discover on the nose? #JuraWhisky #BePartOfTheDramfotainment #Scotch #Whisky
On the palate for the Jura 12yo 40% - Peach, spice, lemon, sourness and wood, a little white pepper. Reminds me of a peach based cocktail on a 18 to 30s holiday in Kavos: sweet and sour, a bit of a blur. #JuraWhisky
One the nose for the 12yo 40% Jura - Fresh peach and lemon juice. Pickle juice. Yellow melon. White peanuts. #JuraWhisky

18 year old Macallan without the packaging from SV. Sub £100. But of a kick int he nuts to the distilleries own pricing, bottled at 57.1%. Of course we ponder why 18 year old whisky should cost so much more than 17, 16 or 15 year old whisky whilst we sip. www.thewhiskybarrel.com/products/mys...

OK so with help and too much brain thinking, the 16yo (£99) and 30yo (£500) The Islay are both Lagavulin. The 20yo is a Bowmore (£150). My favourite blind was the Bowmore by some distance. All very tasty though. www.masterofmalt.com/distilleries...

Highland Park 18 back to £82.50 in a few retailers who will not let stock get over a certain level due to storage costs. Yes, it 43% and should not have ended up priced at over £120, but another sign that stock is not shifting. I have a soft spot for it. www.ocado.com/products/hig...

A previous Summerton Club bottle (or very similar) is on Ocado reduced £38.30 - The Australian Morris Muscat Cask Finish 46%. Fairly cheap considering it's flown 10,000 miles. It's worth browsing Ocado whisky sale too. #whisky www.ocado.com/products/mor...
