I got an email from Jura last week saying they were making some available in the UK direct from their website shop. I havent come across any reviews of it yet.

I think Jura is an underrated expression by many professional whisky pundits (those that get paid for their opinions.
. Laughing

I don't know what this new one is like but the Jura expressions I have tried have been excellent, including the Jura 21, 200th Anniversary Edition. I have unopened bottles of the Jura Elixir and Jura 16 Diurach's Own. I also had the opportunity to try Jura 1996, a 15 Year at 56.5%abv, single cask boutique barrel; Jura 15 year 11 months, 1995 and Jura 17 Year, 54%abv 1993 from a single sherry cask-amazing drams!

Very Happy

I could never fault the Jura 10 and Superstition but they dint do it for me. I do like the Prophecy and 16. Apparently there is some excellent older Jura releases.

I see that the Jura Brooklyn is in the Jura online shop for Â£60

I havent read any reviews of the Jura Brooklyn, I wouldnt even have heard of it if it wasnt for Williams post here. As far as older Jura's goes the Jura 30 year old is an outstanding sherry finished whisky.
