The Superstition is made up of whiskies 13 and 20 Year old. The Origin of course is younger
at 10 Year old and quite briny. You may prefer the Superstition as it has many sweet tones. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

| Personally if i was to choose between the 2 iwould take the Jura Superstition but to be honest i wuld select either. Jura Prophecy is a different story, a pretty decent whisky with anice bit of peat. |

Superstition will not likely improve your opinion, at all. Drinkable, but not worth the time and money. Johnny Walker Black is a better inexpensive choice. _________________ Slainte |
