The Isle of Jura is perhaps Scotland's most inaccessible place. It is also home to the award-winning single malt whisky that bears the same name. And from June, you can personalise every bottle of Jura. That makes it a unique (Father's Day) gift!
Jura is a remote Scottish island located off the west coast of Scotland. With just one road, one pub, one whisky distillery and 212 people, Jura is as beautiful as it is remote. The Jura distillery was founded in 1810 and reborn in 1963 to revitalise the community. Its whiskies have won several awards and have been described by connoisseurs as unique and 'one of a kind'. A spirit with character that is shaped not only by the atmosphere of the special island and a small community of 212 islanders, but also by the maturation process and the diverse enrichment casks in which bourbon, rum, sherry or red wine were previously made.
These cask choices ensure that each variety develops a distinctive aroma and flavour profile. The island's distinct micro-climatic conditions - the exceptionally mild climate and gentle breezes of the Jura - also help and contribute to the soft, accessible, warm flavours of these special malts.
Pure or in the mix & personalised!
Some say you have to drink whisky pure per se, but nothing could be further from the truth. True whisky experts and also the whisky industry say you can drink whisky however you like. Pure, with spring water or in a cocktail. It does not matter. But preferably with friends or family, of course, for optimal enjoyment. And the great thing is: you can now personalise every bottle to make it a perfect gift.

The Jura Signature Collection consists of:
Jura Bourbon Cask: Vanilla, caramel, cinnamon and cocoa.
Golden, fruity, an aroma of vanilla and coconut, a hint of apricot and creamy toffee, a touch of pear, cinnamon and cocoa. That best describes this whisky from the Signature Collection.
Jura Rum Cask: Undertones of spiced tropical notes. This particular Jura Rum Cask Finish is smooth yet lively in flavour. Think vanilla, caramel and coconut complemented by tropical notes due to maturation in Caribbean rum casks. A single malt that is smooth, sweet and at the same time slightly smoky in character.
Jura 10 Year Old: mildly spiced all-rounder with sweet undertones. Matured for as much as 10 years, this whisky is an exceptional Island single malt Scotch Whisky. The Jura 10 Year Old combines peated and unpeated malt with a finish in Oloroso Sherry casks from Jerez, Spain. This results in a sweet, smooth whisky with aromas of rich dark chocolate and vanilla cream.
Jura 12 Year Old: warm notes of spices, banana and citrus
This whisky is Jura at its most powerful. Bourbon cask maturation followed by enrichment in aged oloroso sherry casks create a honey sweetness that delivers warm notes of spice, banana and citrus.
