Jura 18 Year Old

Jura

Situated on a remote island, Jura’s current distillery was rebuilt in the 1960s, though the original dates back to 1810. With stills towering at 7.7 meters and a capacity of 2.2 million liters, Jura was designed to produce light, unpeated whisky aligned with blending needs of the time. Peated malt was introduced in the late 1990s, and by 2018, a new core range featured subtle smoky character.

Despite its isolated location, Jura’s tall stills and short fermentation yield a structured spirit that benefits from time and cask influence. This style, often matured in active woods like Sherry casks, delivers complexity and strong aging potential.
