I bought a bottle of Isle of Jura 10 year old in my local whisky specialist shop. I talked a bit about this whisky with the salesman, and he said, that among the poeple going into the shop 50% likes Jura and 50% not at all. I also read here the comments, but I felt, that I need to try it myself.
I need to tell, that I was quite satisfied with this whisky. It is not a typical island malt, but can be loved by any whisky-starter, or by those people who prefer fresh tastes instead of peaty flavours.
Nose: it gave a frsh impression with citrus and a little bit of grass/meadow smell.
Taste: citrus flavours can be noticed, with the sweetness of malt. Soft and creamy.
Palate: tastes continue with an opening salinity.
Finish: a little shorted, than I expected, salt, sweet honey-like with citrus.
A nice whisky, my girlfriend liked it too. I think it worth trying it, as it does not cost a fortune.
