I have to disagree the Jura 10 that I have is intense and as felt is full of flavour, I thought exactly the opposite to what you’ve said it is as being watery. A very big hit of flavours on the palette.
Haven’t tried the other.
After drinking too much whisky some people lose their senses....
@@M1guel7Dias yea don’t they just alcohol is subtle as it it leads people to deceive themselves believing they are tasting things when they are not really. It’s because alcohol is a highly addictive you see ? Why do you think that whisky tasters tend to enjoy whiskies that have higher abv claiming that they have more flavour ? Hard drinkers even enjoy the taste of meths, cocaine users love the taste of coke.
Addiction to alcohol is in the majority of whisky tasting however subtle it may be.
Besides I’m entitled to say I enjoy Jura without being insulted,taste is also subjective.
I have the jura 10 and my take on it is
Nose: sweet bourbonesk hints also sherry hints as well pear, raisin, black cherry, honey, dark chocolate, vanilla, caramel, marshmallow.
Pallet: thin but prickly. pear, cherry, vanilla, pepper, light smoke. It has a sharpness to it.
It needs a couple more years in wood and a little higher abv. 45% abv in a 12 year age with a little more smoke. Just a hint more smoke. That's what this whisky needs.
I get that a lot with most Juras, they all just seem to be missing a little something
@@NoNonsenseWhisky yeah I think it could use higher alcohol content and more time in a cask or maybe second maturation in smaller cask.
Having picked up six (yes 6) recently, I'm glad now the Jura 10 wasn't one of them. It was in my hand a few times but it just didn't appeal. Cheers.
It really has nothing going for it. With so much choice around now, it's kind of irrelevant
I think Jura have positioned themselves for casual drinkers that grab what looks nice off the supermarket shelves without putting thought into it.
Can't help but agree with you there. More power to them if that's their goal
I was not crazy about the Origin either... My favorite dram from Jura was the Elixir... I have yet to try anything from their new range.
I didn't try the elixir. I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt and try through their range but I won't be rushing to it
Loved the pun on the sign board. Also, there was an immediately discernable difference in color between the two. Jeez. The new 10 looks like they chucked a tea bag in there for a bit. I keep reading and hearing the same message from reviewers, Jura would be better if... (que Ralfy mantra)... 46%, unchillfiltered, no caramel coloring. It's put me off from buying anything other than samples. I'm even hesitant to buy independent bottlings of the stuff. Interested to see what you think of the rest of the new range. Cheers, Vin!
An independent Jura could be a decent thing 🤔 after the amazing Dalmore one I tried I'll not say never!
I agree with your assessment. The origin and the new 10 are very tame and a bit dull tbh. The new Seven Wood and the 18 are alright though there are better whiskies out there for the same price or cheaper.
I'll still be interested in tasting through the range. But I won't be rushing out for them 🤣
I has a similar experience with Jura. Enjoyed Superstition as the 2nd whisky I ever bought, then enjoyed the 10 but came back them 2 years later and there's practically nothing there. I suppose they're selling enough within the beginners/occasional drinkers market to make it worthwhile though so fair play to Jura!
When they re did the whole range, I was convinced they'd realised the quality was low. But I was definitely wrong there!
I reckon they're going for a quick buck from people trying the new range for exactly that reason!
Could be! Glad I didn't actually buy it 😂
Sorry to disagree. For me, it´s a very good whisky. Just the right amount of alcohol, to drink it straight. On the nose, strong woody notes, as well as tobbaco and red fruits. On the palate, not too sweet, but a great taste which lasts long after you swallow it and doesn´t change the flavor in the after taste. tastes like it has been more time in the barrel. Definitely, a product worth buying.
No need to apologise at all. The best thing about whisky is we all like different stuff. I'm glad you enjoy it 🥃
Thanks for the comparison Vin. Ive always been underwhelmed by Jura. I didn't care for the new seven wood, but I didn't totally mind the 16yo.
I need to work up their range and find something that's worthwhile (there's got to be something right?!)
I agree with you completely. It's not bad, really. It's just uninspiring. It would be a different dram at a higher abv.
A totally different dram. At 46% I could be convinced it was a quality product. But at 40% it reeks of cheap sold at a premium
Both of those disappoint. Prophecy was Ok, but not good enough for me to spend real money on their special releases. I kind of like their distillery story so I hope they can come up with something in the next round. Thanks for reviewing.
I'll certainly be trying more from them if I get the chance. I'd like to think they have something in their range for me but who knows!
You should try Dougherty's. It truly one of the most awful whiskeys I've ever tried and I would love to see what you think.
Perfect! I've been looking for more tip offs about terrible whisky!
Hmm, Vin this reminds of the movie Wild Hogs, where dentist of the group is saying the bikers have a choice between sleeveless and sleeveless kind of like with Jura in that watered down note is one in the same for both expressions. I think I need pick up Jura just so I can make my own mind of what it is about, whether it is great or under whelming. Cheers!
You can have any colour you like.....as long as it's black 😂😂
Try one of the cheaper ones by all means. I can't set your expectations any lower so you may well find some enjoyment in it!
No Nonsense Whisky Sorry didn't mean to diss your review, just saying I have no grounds on saying its shite or great until I at least try an expression. I appreciate your honest opinion of Jura. Cheers!
Not at all mate, didn't take it as a diss. You're 100% right. I went into the review hoping to pick the best one, but it turns out neither are worth it 😂
Unfortunately this brand disappoints me more & more, and I do not dig the recent rebranding because some of the bottlings had to be kept imho (esp. the 16 yo & the Prophecy) while ok others enhanced (such as the expensive 21 yo) , but it didn"t happen, instead more caramel added, more wood tech, and less enthousiastic stuff to drink...Seven Wood is to avoid, as the new 10 & Journey seem average....And I could say that for several DALMORE as well...What's going on with Richard ? I wonder....
Quite right Greg. I think we're suffering from a case of Jura not giving a hoot. I guess they've found their market in people that don't know any better?
Probably, Vin, probably, also because they are often not too bad represented in medium to huge supermarkets here in France for instance... @@NoNonsenseWhisky My experience (checking it = 28 Jura tasted so far) is that indie Jura's tend to be barely recognizeable (unlike other distilleries) because they really come naked (non chill filtered , non coloured, "non adjusted to be average" as well) even the 30 yo I struggle to like it but this time because of my own taste ...the official 40 yo though (from around 10 years ago) is my favorite one so far
I was just saying to another commenter that I would love to try some indie stuff from them
I know (for instance) Douglas Laing bottles some in regular basis Vin ...@@NoNonsenseWhisky
Fingers crossed some will cross my path at some point 🤞
I'm surprised at jura.I have a bottle of the prophecy and a bottle of the 16.I use to really like the superstition it was a nice nas dram. I have had the journey but I don't think the new range is as good as before.
I haven't tried a lot of them, but I've been generally disappointed by what I've had (except the superstition which I liked a lot). Nearly picked up a sample pack today but decided against it
No Nonsense Whisky don’t try the journey. That was the first Jura I’d tried in years. It was bogging. As you note in this video, the Jura whiskies seem to be watery.
Thankfully it was a gift and a half bottle. I’ll give it to the wife when she wants a nip. It won’t take long to disappear and will not be replaced.
@@humphandhumbug I'll definitely give it a go at some point for the channel, but as you say, I'm not expecting it to be any good at all
Lidl have Jura Journey on sale for £18.99 just now.
Certainly an interesting change. Think i had superstition a while back, saying that...................... think it was a sample set. So probably had origin too. Unfortunately forgettable. Can't say it would be one would like to go back too. Shame as i like the design, bottle etc. but then maybe its just trying too hard to be "trendy" ????
Great review!
Yeah I like the design of it all too. It's a shame the liquid inside doesn't match up to it.
I'm hoping the rest of the range is a little better
I have not yet tried a Jura. I am a little more hesitant now. If i come across some minis then i might consider it
Minis or these half bottles are a must before you buy a big one.
I agree. I just bought a makers mark mini. Im not that into bourbon as it is to sweet. But man. That Makers is amazing. I will certainly buy a full size now
Sounds like youre a fan of the wheated bourbons then. Try a few more
I think i will. Do you know of any other brands at all?
There isn't loads of them but 1792, Larceny and WL Weller are good bets to get you started.
i spotted half a dozen of the old 10 year old "origin" in lidl for about £23 the other day, temped to pick one up just to have it before it goes away completely. im slowly working may way thru a bottle of superstition with the old 16 year old "duriachs own" waiting in the wings then when thats gone i think i may be done with jura. i was hoping with the re-vamp last year they were changing their ways to try and keep up with the whiskies next door but sadly not. i have a vision in my head of richard paterson going full on psycho in the board room at a room full of suits who have refused to raise the abv as jura buyers might be put off by the higher strength. suppose at the end of the day its a business and money talks but i suspect whyte and mackay are one of the brands that would welcome a reduction to 35% abv by the powers that be so they can take full advantage and dilute their stuff even further so it sits nicely next to capatin morgans and southern comfort.
Hahaha that's a good vision. And I think you might be right. Too much abuse though and the Jura name will be sullied for a good while.
@@NoNonsenseWhisky it only seems to be sullied among people who really like their drams, as u and a few other have said its a beginners/ casual drinkers whisky. im heading out to islay with a few friends in may. they are all keen to visit jura as they arent as keen on whisky as i am but like a bargain. im almost not looking forward to it (the jura part anyway lol).
I've heard Jura is a pretty good visit, despite the drams. I would love to go to Islay! One day
@@NoNonsenseWhisky was on islay for the first time last year. it really is all its cracked up to be. if u are ever in that neck of the woods i recommend making a stop in campbeltown -its not much to look at but well worth checking out springbank etc.
No Scotch should EVER be sold at 40%. The Scotch Whiskey Association needs to mandate 43% as the legal minimum, it would do so much for the industry reputation.
I'll drink to that
@@NoNonsenseWhisky question, bought the Jura 10 today after your review piqued my interest. Is tasting almost watered down normal or do you think I got a weird one-off bottle. It reminds me of when I would water down my bourbon bottle before friends came over for a party so that nobody got too drunk.
Nah you got that taste bang on. Mouth feel is very watery indeed
@@NoNonsenseWhisky thanks, wanted to make sure I wasn’t crazy. I had to double check to make sure they didn’t start allowing lower than 40 ABV lol
The problem with Jura, at this entry point, is they are also chill filtering, using tired casks and using 40%. Makes for a very boring liquid
Am i really the only person that liked Origin?....
Definitely not! A whole bunch of people thought it was incredibly. But that's the beautiful thing about whisky, everyone likes something different!
thanks for this 👍
No problem!
1:03 The Durex-owned 16? Sounds like a really bad porn flick tbh. Very much enjoying Jura 10 though. Nice vid, as usual, Vin.
Some of those Gaelic words are mental aren't they 😂
pokeround hahaha 😂
Haha - still the nicest guy in whisky😂
😂😂 I try my best
The 18 was a bargain last week on amazon, and the reviews for it are awful. Decided not to buy it. Jura don’t have any decent feedback recently.
That’s a real shame as I’d have been interested in trying the 18.
No Nonsense Whisky It was down to £50 from £75 3 days ago in the Amazon lightening deals. Great price for any 18 year old but everyone is panning it.
Cheers for the heads up on it. I’m actually glad I didn’t see it as I might have been tempted to grab it
the new 2019 Jura 10 is absolutely vile - for the first time ever with a single malt, the only way I could drink it was with coke - good riddance!
