✦ Neatly Summary

Jura 12 Year Old 2008 (cask 13982) - Old Particular (Douglas Laing) is a 12-year-old single malt from Jura (Island, Scotland), bottled at 48.4% ABV. Expect sweet, fruity and delicately floral character — malt extract, vanilla, honey, fresh fruit. A well-balanced whisky that appeals to both newcomers and enthusiasts. Good value for the quality offered.

Jura's island character—briny, slightly smoky, and robust—comes through clearly in this 12-year-old from a refill hogshead, which favors purity of distillery character over cask dominance. Distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2020, it carries the maritime influence Jura is known for, with orchard fruit and a subtle peat undertone balancing the island's coastal minerality. At 348 bottles, this limited independent release suits whisky enthusiasts seeking authentic, unfussy island single malts.
