The Isle of Jura Journey whisky bottle is the entry point to Jura's range and the start of a metaphorical journey through the flavors of the island's only distillery. This whisky is more than just a drink, it represents a journey of the distillery from its foundation to its rebirth in 1963, shaping the character of the community and the whisky produced. The Jura Journey is an ideal introduction to the style represented by the distillery, with a delicately smoky aroma perfectly balanced with sweetness.
The whisky is characterized by a subtle smoke and sweetness, with a scent of vanilla, spices, and citrus. The taste is sweet with notes of cinnamon, pears, pecan nuts, and fudge. The whisky is matured in American White Oak Ex-Bourbon barrels, adding to its unique flavor profile. The Jura distillery, located on the island of Jura, was originally built in 1810 and closed between 1901 and 1963. It was rebuilt and distillation recommenced by new owners Charles Mackinlay & Co. Invergordon bought Mackinlay & Co. in 1985 and were then themselves acquired by Whyte & Mackay in 1993. After some spectacular twists and turns, Whyte & Mackay is today owned by Emperador, a subsidiary of the Philippines-based Alliance Global.
The whisky is presented in a 70cl bottle with 40% ABV and is available in a presentation box, making it an excellent gift or addition to any whisky collection.
The main flavor notes include vanilla, spices, citrus, cinnamon, pears, pecan nuts, fudge, butter, lemongrass, apple, toffee, dark chocolate, and raisins.
