Isle of Jura Superstition

Isle of Jura

 

The people of Jura are superstitious. From the prophecy of the one-eyed Campbell to an aversion to cutting peat before May, age-old island beliefs resonate to this day. Drawing on the finest older malts and spring-peated younger whiskies, Jura Superstition is a tribute to the people, the traditions and the mystical heritage that make Jura island life unique.

SUGGESTED CHOCOLATE PAIRING

Chuao - Candela

The nuttiness of the praline plays well with the peat and the smoky chipotle enhance the sweet smokiness of this scotch.  An assertive combination yet agreeable palate.
