Product description
In early spring 2022, Jura Distillery announced the "Islanders' Expressions" series of whiskies inspired by creative artists associated with the island.
The first edition was created in collaboration with Amy Dunnachie (known as Amy Fields), a local jeweller born on the island, who created an ornate brooch made of copper and pieces of rope washed ashore on Jura. The whisky itself, in turn, is a marriage of two islands – Jura and Barbados – as it has undergone its final maturation in casks that previously held rum from the Caribbean island. Jura Barbados Rum Cask Finish is bottled at 40% abv and is intended exclusively for sale through Global Travel Retail.
Nose: fruity, pineapples, tangerines, nectarines, coconut flakes, vanilla cream, brown sugar, notes of candied ginger and oak.
Palate : sweet, peaches, mango, grilled pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, vanilla cream, coconut, cinnamon and toasted oak.
