Jura’s whiskies capture the diverse character of its home — an island with just 212 residents, each of whom play a part in the whisky’s manufacture. Unlike the whiskies produced on nearby Islay, Jura’s expressions are primarily unpeated, and closer in style to those that hail from the Highlands. And, while only around five per cent of Jura’s whiskies use peated barley, these smokier distillates help master blenders Gregg Glass and Richard Paterson OBE create the spirit’s distinctive character. The tall stills, American oak ex-bourbon casks, and filtered fresh water from the island combine to create a distinct, cohesive Jura flavour — one that captures the spirit of the distillery’s remote, natural location.
