Jura Superstition

I'm not superstitious, but I am a little 'stitious. I am super into this scotch though. Not an entry level whiskey, the smoke and peat up front may scare the uninitiated. However, the complexity hidden behind those dominant, forward flavors is incredible. Add to that a cool bottle and name, and it's a must for everyone's collection. It's a shame it's been discontinued.

Decent

Tastes watered down.

Nose - funky, oily peat, brine, dry grass, apple, honey, mild vanilla and caramel, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sour apple, honey, vanilla, caramel, dry grass, oily peat, cereal grain, barrel char, brine, moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium length with sour apple, sweet peat, and caramel barrel char flavors. I like this better than the 10 Year Origin release, but it’s not spectacular. The same sourness on the palate is present here. However, there’s more complexity and less tannic bitterness, so I’ll give this one a slight edge.
