Isle of Jura 14 Year Old American Rye Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Matured in ex bourbon and hand selected American Rye barrels for an unspecified period, this middle-aged Jura promises surprising depth and complexity at an entry-level ABV.

Other reviews... Red berry, cherry, and light touches of earthy oak aromas. The palate is light and delicious, with more red berry notes, sweet orange, vanilla, and balanced pepper spice. A long finish brings a rush of strawberry tart, crème brûlée, and confectioners sugar against the heat of pepperoncini. The ABV is as light as can be, yet it delivers on flavor—rich vanilla and sweet berry fruit—with excellent depth and superb balance. 92 points - whiskyadvocate.com

Notes from the producers... Nose: Our classic fresh citrus and vanilla character is balanced with the herbal and floral aromas of the American Rye barrels, delivering aromas of mango, fresh mint and crushed almonds.  Taste: On the palate, you’ll taste toffee apple richness and pecan pie with layers of cinnamon, vibrant vanilla, honey, cacao and hazelnut. Finish: Warm and nutty with notes of toffee, maple syrup, guava and soft wood spices.
