@thewhiskywire.bsky.social i came into this not expecting much,yet im surprised, for me the older age statements were the best, the 12 didnt do it, the sherry 12 pulled it back a little but the 15 & the 16 were smashing, as somebody thats not a jura fan im relatively surprised with the outcome!

the palate on this one is alot longer, its warm, citrus with a salty salinity that sticks to the end, almost drying the tongue so your waiting for more of that sweet salty fruitiness!! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

Ok its the 15 year old sherry finish now! lets see what we have here! on the nose im getting a warm frangipane and lemons, i like this before i even try it! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

the sherry 15 didnt disappoint on the nose, the palate certainly follows suit, and its salty! not in a bad way, like sea salty, sweet caramel pecans and lemon stays throughout! well balanced! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

ok the Jura sherry 12! this has that fruityness i want! this is almost like peaches and cream on a summers day! smells amazing! looking forward to sipping this one #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

on the palate im getting oranges, soft toffee like a soft caramel choco werthers original!!, and some salt and i like all those things! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

Jura 16, on the nose im back to fruitiness of peach and lemon, but this one also smells like the sea, im hoping that plays throught the dram! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

On the palate theres a little note of fruit, maybe honeydew melon, its there but not as prominent as i hoped, its got a lil kick to hit in the back of the throat, and very nutty for me. Wish there was more sweetness #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

Here we go, Up first the Jura 12, 40% i love the colour, the nose isnt doing much for me, its got a nice nuttyness & a little briney note to i, missing that fruity sweetness for me but dont judge till i try i guess! #JuraWhisky #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencer #Whisky-Stu-On-Insta #LikeFollowShare

@thewhiskywire.bsky.social yet again outdone the last one, this was a smashing tasting, last time was all apples n pears today its oranges and apples! cant wait for the next fruity complication!! #DramFoTainment #WhiskyInfluencerWannabe

000

Finish is smooth! Buttery apple crumble with custard! a lil marmalade still hides in there too thats a great compliment for the dram, theres the smoke to boot but almost like burnt rosemary it works really well! i like this alot!! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

On the palate the 21 moves into a realm of its own! its like marmalade, and summer fruits, its a mix of the jam on toast and the caramelised oranges from earlier drams!! @thewhiskywire.bsky.social this is a banger! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

Here we GO!! the Benromach 21 year old! On the nose this is a beauty, its very wood forward and has that orange like note again alongside a little smoke and christmas cake hiding in there #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

the 15 finish is quite long, theres smoke, theres spincy ginger warmth and theres a dryness thats good, but still has the fruity notes throughout! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

On the Palate the 15 has changed direction slightly, now im getting apples and ginger, kinda like apple pie actually, its still holding the toffee notes and the smoke sticks with it. very well balanced! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

The 15 is up now! On the nose i get toffee, oranges again and that little bit of smoke, this smells superb! theres another note there i dont know but do know lol whats that, is it tea? #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

071

on the palate im getting oranges and an earthy kick of pepper, then theres a sweetness to it too, im getting a herby note too, a little funky! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

@thewhiskywire.bsky.social this is my 1st try of the new 12! on the nose - stunning! caramel, chocolate, and a butchers fruit pudding! like oat fruitiness fried in butter on a sunday morning, im just missing the bacon! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

on the palate its smooth as you like but with a lil spice kicker almost like lemon and ginger and there is a lovely smoke kick in that too, it ends super fruity, a lovely taste of brambles and blackcurrant very tasty! #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment

Benromach Contrasts Bordeaux finish, a lovely colour on this one!! on the nose its a mix of seasons, u get winter spices and summer fruits, this smells like jam on toast on a winters morning! @thewhiskywire.bsky.social #BenromachWhisky #Whisky_Stu-On-Insta #WhiskyLove #WhiskyTasting #DramFoTainment
