- Description
- Distilled on Isle of Jura and matured in American oak oloroso hogsheads, this 16-year-old (2008) balances coastal minerality with sherry depth at 53.8% ABV. Rockpool brininess, cider apples, honey-roasted nuts, and dry spice meet waves of peat smoke—burning juniper and menthol—finishing dry and lingering. A limited Black Friday 2024 release for those seeking the intersection of Jura's maritime identity and dignified sherry influence.
