Jura Travel Retail @TweetTastings

Earlier in the year I was lucky enough to take part in a @TweetTasting of @JuraWhisky's newly relaunched range - and I really liked them! Steve then went and arranged a tasting of their new Global Travel Retail (GTR) range so I knew I had to take part!

It's a range of five sherried whiskies called The Jura Sherry Cask Collection, using slightly peated spirit they've been matured in ex-Bourbon barrels before being finished in PX casks which have held sherry for different lengths of time. They are all named after features on Jura near the distillery.

The new range consists of:

• The Sound - 42.5% NAS finished in casks previously containing 15yo PX
• The Road - 43.6% NAS finished in casks previously containing 20yo PX
• The Bay - 44% NAS finished in casks previously containing 15yo PX
• The Loch - 44.5% NAS finished in casks previously containing 30yo PX
• The Paps - 45.6% 19yo finished in casks previously containing 40yo PX
