Although the original Jura distillery was founded in the early 1800s, the rebuilt distillery is a 1960s classic, one of many that emerged during this boom period. A light smoky character is found in this whisky, accompanied by flavors such as applewood and vanilla. This evolves into meaty notes on the finish.

Nose: Sweet and rich, with fruity aromas suggesting baked apple, pear and peach. These are soon joined by a rich caramel note, reminiscent of sweet butterscotch. All these aromas are mellow, round and mouth-watering.
Mouth: Firm and full-bodied, richly fruity from the start, the powerful, fresh taste soon becomes deliciously sweet and salty, with a hint of salt amid the spicy intensity.
Finish: Quite long, it finishes smoothly, dry, slightly spicy and slightly refreshing.
