Jura distillery is completely overhauling its entire range of Scotch whiskies in what’s being called the ‘biggest launch in its history’.
The island distillery is replacing its existing range of Scotch whiskies with a completely new line-up that introduces a new flavour direction for the brand.
From April 2018 Jura's core range of Origin, Superstition, Diurach’s Own 16 Year Old and Prophecy will be removed from sale.
The expressions will be replaced with five new bottlings – including a ‘refined and stylish’ bottle design – created around a new signature style, combining subtle smoke with sweetness from American white oak barrels and ‘enhanced’ with a Sherry cask finish, described as a mix of Highland and Island styles.
Finally, the core range is complete with the launch of Jura 18 Year Old, a single malt matured for 18 years in American oak barrels before being finished in red wine casks.
Described as exhibiting notes of toffee, black forest fruits and bitter chocolate, the whisky will be available globally.
Welcome to Jura
A few miles off the west coast of Scotland you’ll find our island: remote, sometimes wild, yet always beautiful.
Home to 200 islanders, one road, one pub and one distillery. Since 1810 this unique island malt has been our greatest endeavour and our greatest reward, its creation the heart of an unbreakable bond between our island, our people and our whisky.
