Jura Bourbon Xu

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 55%

Score: 93 Points

This is peatier than most Juras, and the nose has notes of wood smoke, coconut, almond, vanilla, and marzipan. The taste is a nice complex mix of honey and cinnamon, black tea and lemon, and malty with a spiciness that builds slowly. The finish has malt, honey, and lemon notes with a hint of smoked salmon.
