Jura Whisky Tastival 2016 Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The 2016 special bottling for the Jura Tastival, which is held on the island each year during the same week as Fèis Ìle (the Islay festival of music and malt). This year’s release was finished in Palomino Fino, Amoroso Oloroso and Apostoles Oloroso Sherry casks. Nose: Hot creamy caramel, roasted hazelnuts, over-ripe pears and soft vanilla drift into play. Maple syrup, delicate aged Oloroso sherry and crushed almonds all add to make this an opulent dram. Palate: Baked apple segments dusted with Demerara sugar and cinnamon, kiwi fruits and hot mulled wine. Finish: A fusion of sundried sultanas, glazed pineapple and lemon verbena.
