The 16 years of undisturbed maturation on the island of Jura have produced a rounded, gentle and sophisticated dram, which truly reflects the slow passing of the island seasons. The result is a richer, deeper flavour, reminiscent of the quietest Jura summers.

COLOUR: Glassy golden highlights.

NOSE: Full, and rich. The hand of time has moulded this unique Single Malt into an array of intense notes - each aroma has been beautifully structured to reveal harmony at its best. Silk and honey with a hint of ginger spice encompass this floral bouquet.

TASTE: The heart of the matter. Allow this noble spirit to drift over the palate - having lain for 16 long years in American White Oak, the warmth of the tongue will assist in raising the true depth of the spirit's quality.

Soft peaches and honey with a hint of citrus and marzipan will slowly arise yet the backbone of its heritage continues to ebb away on the aftertaste, leaving the palate rewarded and satisfied.
