Jura Superstition

Jura Superstition

Official bottling
Single malt - Islands
Sun gold
40% ABV
Dram

Nose: Orange juice, lemon sweets, pine, brass polish, raisins, hints of milk chocolate, hints of peat.
Mouthfeel: Medium body, tingly, turns astringent, quite static.
Tasting: Sour. Pine, sea salt, lemon sweets, raisins, milk chocolate, brass polish, hints of peat.
Finish: Medium. Chillies, peat, pine, lemon sweets.

Comments:


Jura is quite uniquely piney, I think, but the combination of peat and pine somehow doesn't work too well. Quite run of the mill, a little like a slightly peaty Balvenie, or some other mild light Speyside.

Verdict:

Not bad.
