The present Jura distillery was built between 1960-63 by Robin Fletcher and Tony Riley-Smith, on the grounds of a previous distillery (also called Jura) that had been founded in 1810 but closed and dismantled in 1901.The new distillery was producing malt more akin to the Highland style rather than the heavily-peated whisky of near-neighbors Islay, a strategy that has continued to bear fruit for Jura.
Jura 10 Y.O.
A well-balanced entry in the Jura range, made up of both smoky and unpeated whisky matured in bourbon casks and finished in sherry, adding darker notes to the soft smoke and fresh fruit of the distill
Jura 12 Y.O.
The core of the Jura range, aged for 12 years in bourbon casks and then finished in Oloroso sherry. The result blends the distillery's characteristic gently smoky character with sweetness, spice and dark fruit. A great introduction to Jura.
