Medium, toffee, honey, some spices, drying, nutmeg Overall:ĭespite all the toffee and vanilla – the overriding palate on this whisky reminds me of Chantilly cream on red berries. Sweet & creamy, whipped vanilla cream with a light caramel sauce, crème brulee with a hint of orange oil/essence/peel, malty, toffee, creamy latte coffee or coffee made with evaporated or too much powdered milk Finish: Colour:ĭark amber caramel (11/20),medium legs & slow medium tears Nose:Ĭreamy & sweet, spiced nutmeg, toffee, caramel, red berry fruits/summer fruits, butterscotch, cereal malted barley, a touch of peat smoke, gristy, oaty biscuits and flapjacks, honey, hobnob biscuits, instant whip/cool whip Taste: Recently however I spotted a hauf-and-hauf gift pack in the supermarket of a 20cl bottle of Superstition, Jura branded glass and bottle of Fyne Ales Sanda Black beer – which was at an offer price I couldn’t refuse. Unfortunately my 1st bottle never got reviewed (before I started blogging) and I have struggled to return to this whisky due to the sheer mass of others in its way. A little like Cragganmore 12yo, one was never enough and I could sip a glass all night long too. On my journey of whisky discovery, Jura Superstition was one of the early supermarket bargain bottles I bought that I found simply un-put-down-able. Jura Superstition Single Malt Scotch, 750mL BRAND: 86-proof (43 A.B.V.) COLOR: Golden amber AROMA: Honey, oats and peat smoke, with hints of tropical fruits. A whisky that splits opinions almost as much as Jura distillery itself. What I say:įor me the classic Jura expression: Superstition. Superstition is aged in a selection of the finest ex-Bourbon casks to bring out spicy notes and subtle smokiness. The warmth of the tongue releases spice, honey, pine and peat. The NAS market is, certainly, one where the buyer must beware. Light phenolic aromas with subtle nuances of honey and spice result in a sweet yet smoky delight.
When you raise a glass of this whisky, you're raising a glass to the ancient ways of our island. As a nod to them, and to our island home, still dotted with ancient stones and markings, we called this expression Superstition. Islanders were a superstitious lot in the past.
