The beautiful, untamed Isle of Jura is one of the places in Scotland where nature is at its wildest. Located off the west coast, this elongated island is known for its high mountains, delicious whisky, a huge sea whirlpool and a population of just 200 people.
Jura Single Malt Scotch whisky is so much more than water, barley, and yeast. A bit of home, community, and passion goes into every bottle.
Like most things in life, it's about the journey, not the destination. And theirs begins with the water source for our incredible whisky, right at the top of their island's highest mountain range, the Paps du Jura. Water, or sometimes snow, seeps down the mountain range and into the Market Loch below. This water comes to the distillery via streams and waterfalls to help shape our unique Single Malt.
They have some of the highest stills of all island distilleries. Sending them to their remote island wasn't easy. However, the higher the stills, the purer the spirit.
It takes time to make great tasting whisky, and it all starts with sourcing quality ingredients. They source the best casks from around the world to mature their single malt on the island.
Their iconic seafaring bottles, with their broad shoulders and rounded rims, were historically designed to withstand the toughest sea voyages from their home island to the far corners of the globe.
