Isle of Jura Distillery

Isle of Jura Dis­tillery is located on the Hebridean island of Jura (near Islay). Unlike some of its heav­ier Islay neigh­bours, Isle of Jura is a lightly peated, smooth, ele­gant and dry malt, with a sub­tle aca­cia honey aftertaste.

Jura’s range of malts include a 10, 16 and 21 year old and one named Superstition.

The first offi­cial dis­tillery on Jura was built in 1810 but there is evi­dence that some dis­till­ing took place on the island as far back as 1502. The dis­tillery has been expanded over the years but still occu­pies the same site, draws its water from the same nat­ural source and remains the only dis­tillery on the island. The dis­tillery is owned by Whyte and Mackay.
