Super interesting whisky, nothing like any Jura you’ve had. There is a strange disconnect with the heaviness of the nose and the mouthfeel and finish but that makes it super interesting. Mouth feel is not as heavy as the nose but the finish is long. It is very saline – Imagine a horse and a salt lick. Second sip becomes heavier and progresses and builds on itself. Licorice, herbal and distinct heavy salinity. The yeastiness is prevailing, cereal notes too. Please ensure that you undertake close up viewing/inspection prior to placing any bid.

There is fatty notes, oily and reminds me of a spoonful of bovril and pork rinds with black pepper. This whisky is one one of the most unusual whiskies I’ve nosed. traditional B&Bs, luxury holiday homes, cosy cottages and campsites. Extreme earthiness, unusual straight away – No hiding that fact.
