When you read this i want you to feel my dissapointment. I know what to expect in an Islay or Island Whisky, i hope for it and i found nothing near of that in Jura's Diurach's Own 16 yo. More boring and simple than its very wonderful siblings, Superstition and Origin, made me wonder if Jura should sell the younger models at a higher price and this one at a lower price. Let me get this clear, it is a good dram, just not excelent. Superstition And Origin were amazing. On the nose is very elegant, with Vanilla in a beautiful way and macadamian nuts. Maybe some Caramel BUT ALMOST NO PEAT. No peat in an Islay or Island whisky is like playing soccer without the goal. Nothing else happens on the nose, i can tell you it smells sweet and delicious but no fireworks are fired here. On the palate it has nothing to do with the profile told on the box. It is Hot, rough, with dry brown grasses, woody, nutty, with a long hot finish, not easy to enjoy. The real problem here: it was kind of boring. I had to make it a little better so i tried adding 2 mini drops of water and it helped a lot. On the nose i discovered honey, Caramel and Chocolate, without firing fireworks either. On the palate it was most improved, releasing all this beatiful spicyness that dance all over your mouth, resembling like licking a "crazy dips" lollipop, but in this case the spices (ginger and black pepper) are the ones that "sparkle" in your tongue.There is also a tobacco note on the palate after adding water. Finish is long, full bodied. bottled at 40% but is very rough very oily, no Islay or Island profile at all. Its color is chesnut. Overall it is a good whisky, but not the ultra mega great whisky i was hoping it to be. Maybe its my fault for having great expectations, but it was because its two predecessors were amazing.
