Distiller Notes
Two additional years in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks and an aged Oloroso Sherry cask finishing offer this 12 year old a sweeter, richer profile featuring refined succulent tropical aromas of chocolate, walnut and citrus fruit on the nose as well as flavors of honey, salted bananas and brown sugar on the palate. The finish offers a delicate whisper of smoke in the tradition of Jura’s house style.
“A good gulp of hot Scotch Whisky at bedtime–it’s not very scientific, but it helps!”
Alexander Fleming, Scottish inventor of penicillin, prescribed it as a cure for the common cold. Today Single Malt Scotch Whiskies are prized by enthusiasts and aficionados the world over for their rarity, age and complexity. By definition these must be produced in Scotland from a single distillery and made entirely from malted barley, using a pot still. The appearance, aroma and flavor of a Single Malt Scotch Whisky can vary widely depending on whether it was produced in the Highlands, Lowlands Islands, Speyside, Islay or Campbelltown regions.
