This bottling of a 21-year-old Jura has been available in this variant since 2010, and was released in honour of the distillery's 200th anniversary. The whisky matured in ex-bourbon casks and received a finish in ex-Oloroso sherry casks.
The current distillery is located in Craighouse, was built from 1958 onwards and started operations in 1963. Legally, however, whisky has been distilled on Jura since 1810.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
