The Spirit The Spirit

Region:Islands
We've long been fans of the releases from this fantastic island distillery and this 18 year old expression is absolutely sensational. The maturation takes place in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, slowly gaining complexity and colour. The final act is to enrich the flavour by a period of time in Premier Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux barrels which has created a unique spirit that has truly come of age.
The Distillery The Distillery
Situated just 60 miles off the west coast of Scotland, Jura only has one road, one pub and one distillery! The local population of around 200 people are outnumbered by the native Red deer an incredible 30 to 1! It's hard to measure the importance the distillery plays in the island community, it is not only the largest employer, but is vital in sustaining the local economy. The people of Jura are ingrained in the distillery and their passion is key in making the iconic flavours that diversify throughout the range from the Journey through to the 21 year old single malt.
The Perfect Serve The Perfect Serve
After 18 years ageing and a period to finish the flavour profile in French oak barrels, this sensational single malt should be enjoyed neat with just a dash of water to bring down the ABV% slightly and open up the uncountable flavours and aromas it holds.
