Isle Of Jura 18 Year Old (70cl, 42%)

A special release of Isle of Jura’s 18-year-old whisky, originally only available in travel retail. It was initially matured in American-oak ex-bourbon casks before a finish in ‘Premier grand cru classé barriques’ – casks that used to hold top-end Bordeaux wine. Master blender Richard Paterson knows his wine casks, and here he’s added layers of rich spice and soft red fruit to Jura’s malty and spicy spirit.
