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.
