Tasting Notes
Colour
Luminous amber-gold with warm honeyed tones and a soft coppery glow, like sunlight on polished caramel.
Nose
Vanilla bean with warm toffee and soft sweetness dominates, laced by gentle bourbon spice with cinnamon and nutmeg, and framed by creamy oak. A delicate coastal note hints at Jura’s island character.
Palate
Soft, creamy vanilla leads the palate, shaped by the bourbon cask, with ribbons of gentle spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—over a delicate caramel and honey sweetness. Subtly maritime in the background, Jura’s island spirit rounds to a warm, oak-kissed finish with a lingering vanilla sweetness.
Finish
Long, velvet finish of vanilla and soft sweetness, threaded with gentle spice. The oak lingers warmly, leaving a honeyed coastal glow that fades slowly into Jura’s island character.
