Isle of Jura 10 year old turned out to be a steady executor that presents itself smoothly all the way from the start until the very end. It is not complex and it's not as spicy as Jura Superstition. Jura 10 is a safe option. It would suit nicely with afternoon starters. Or in some place where you don't want to draw attention.
Jura 10 definitely brings up the movie Under the Tuscan Sun. It takes me straight away into the hay fields of Tuscany. Jura 10 gives you a feel of nature, especially a blossoming nature. I guess the most ideal way to enjoy Jura 10 would be with the one you love. And of course, under the Tuscan sun.
Nose: Quite fresh and delicate. Very floral and earthly, like smelling the summer hay. Oak is there too.
Taste: Full body with barley mixing in with sweet toffee. A touch of citrus is hanging in the background as well.
Finish: Is nice and medium length with subtle spicy notes and honey.
Balance: Nicely in balance, nothing rules out. Nothing seems to strike through either, which isn't always a good thing. But in Jura 10's case I like the fact that all steps of the tasting are even.
