AboutIsle of Jura Distillery
Jura’s island distillery was established in 1810, closed in 1901 and returned to production after a rebuild in 1963. The beachside distillery draws its water from Market Loch and uses exceptionally tall stills. For its Seven Wood bottling, whisky starts in ex-bourbon casks before being divided among six types of French-oak cask.
Jura Seven Wood Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Coffee, ginger and dark chocolate introduce a layered aroma, followed by baked peach and candied orange. The palate is generous and rounded, bringing crème caramel, sweet liquorice, toffee and cinnamon into balance with toasted oak and earthy spice. Rich fruit carries through the structure, while the finish remains warm, fragrant and composed. Serve neat or with a little water.
Jura 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Ripe peach and bright citrus open the aroma, followed by tropical fruit, vanilla and lightly toasted walnut. The palate is smooth and gently rounded, with fruity sweetness balanced by polished oak and a measured thread of smoke. Nutty depth and soft spice build toward a composed, lingering finish. Serve neat, adding a small splash of water if desired.
Jura 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Sweet citrus and malt open a gentle island profile, joined by light floral notes, vanilla and a restrained coastal edge. Ten years in American white-oak ex-bourbon barrels give the palate a smooth cereal core, while an Oloroso-sherry finish adds rounded fruit and quiet spice. The texture remains light and approachable, with soft oak supporting rather than dominating the malt. A mild, balanced finish leaves vanilla, citrus, gentle spice and a faint maritime note behind.
Jura Elixir 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Crushed almond and roasted coffee frame bright pineapple and fresh citrus. The palate is rounded but lively, moving through orange, lemon and lime before sherried fruit and vanilla oak add depth. Delicate smoke stays in the background. The finish is measured and warming, leaving dark toffee, ginger spice, dried fruit and a final trace of chocolate.
Jura Prophecy Heavily Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Floral heather and Brazil nut rise through peat smoke, salty air and a briny maritime note. The palate is oily and assertive, combining smoky bacon, liquorice and dried fruit with maple sweetness and dark cocoa. The smoke remains structured rather than blunt. The finish is long and mineral, leaving iodine, char, salt and a restrained touch of toffee.
