Jura 18 Year Old
Nose: Creamy vanilla yoghurt with hints of hazelnut to
start. A soft mineral note builds from underneath, pairing
with sweet spiced bread, orange peel, brown sugar and
white pepper. Toff ee and milk chocolate truffl e peek out at
the end.
Palate: Soft spice grows, pushing its way through sponge
cake and orchard fruit. Gentle notes of barrel char provide
a background of smokiness, which builds over time. Th e
smoke is balanced by dried fruit, dark chocolate and
candied lemon.
Finish: Th e char lingers, with spiced studded orange peel
and chocolate notes growing and then fading.
