Product Description
This single cask Jura would be remarkable just for it's strength - it seems inconceivable that any spirit could spend nearly three decades in cask and still end up at over 60%! The malt itself unsurprisingly shows plenty of oak along with fruit and savoury notes, but the high alcohol ensures it is still bursting with energy.

Tasting Notes from Whiskyfun (Serge Valentin)
Matthew Forrest was specialised in sourcing ‘official’ casks for the Japanese market. I think it’s him who revealed the famous very young peated Juras to the world.
Colour: straw.
Nose: this one starts all on grass and coffee and that may well be the high alcohol. Also whiffs of wet newspaper of the day (lots of ink) and shoe polish, but it’s a bit pungent, let’s add water right away.
An extreme saponification takes place. In case you don’t know yet, sometimes adding water to whisky will create smells of soap (and heat) so it’s better to wait a bit before you go on with your nosing, as those smells should quickly vanish. That’s exactly what happens here, leaving room for more rather beautiful fresh fruits (now I get mangos, papayas, quinces) as well as something very coastal such as very fresh fish, very fresh oysters, kelp… Also quite some fresh almonds. Keyword: fresh, you got it. And superb.
Mouth (neat): extremely powerful but also hugely fruity (various apples including their skins, grapefruits), getting very citrusy, sharp like a blade, acrid in a nice way. This one really fires on all (twelve) cylinders, but it’s a bit too untameable.
With water now (at roughly 45%): oh yes, it got even more citrusy (always these lemons and grapefruits but also tangerines and oranges). Beautiful notes of Turkish delights (not the ones for cheap tourists), mangos again, then soft spices (cloves as often with Jura, although we know that should come from the wood, not from the spirit)… Truly superb.
Finish: long, on roughly the same style except for an added saltiness. A great ‘naked’ Jura, extremely classy. Good work Mr Forrest. 91 points (and thanks, Patrick S.)
