Isle of Jura 10 Year Old (70cl, 40%)

The Isle of Jura 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, bottled in the early 2000s, is a classic expression from this remote Hebridean island distillery. This whisky embodies the essence of Jura, having matured for a decade in the unique microclimate of the island. The Jura Distillery, with its distinctive tall stills, imparts a character to its whisky that sets it apart from other island malts, creating a spirit that is both approachable and complex.
Established in 1810 and rebuilt in 1963, the Jura Distillery has a fascinating history intertwined with the island's own. Located on the eastern coast of Jura, with views across to the mainland, the distillery is known for its isolation - there's only one road, one pub, and one distillery on the island. This 10-year-old expression, bottled in the early 2000s, represents a period of resurgence for the distillery, which had been producing increasingly popular malts under the ownership of Whyte & Mackay. It's a testament to the skill of Jura's distillers and the unique environment in which this whisky was crafted.
