The Prophecy has been fulfilled - you're drinking it.  
Established in 1810 on the Isle of Jura, north-west of the Island (and whisky region) of Islay. As with many other Scotch distilleries, Jura went through a rough patch in the first half of the 20th century. It wasn't until 1960, when two local estate owners, Robin Fletcher and Tony Riley-Smith rebuilt the distillery and introduced taller stills that allowed Jura to create a wider mix of malts. Jura’s Whiskies are just as unique as their place – a range of rich, seafaring Whiskies – some lightly peated, others carrying a heavier peated profile.
 
Prophecy stands out amongst its Jura friends as a smokier and more heavily peated expression. Imagine you are one of those bodies preserved in peat. That’s what it's like to drink Jura Prophecy.  
 
This very fine malt is is made in small batches from old and rare casks. The thick wafts of smoke last from nose to finish, deepening and enriching the coastal flavours also embodied in this dram. Prophecy is a Scotch that sticks close to its home, with a tangy sea-salt buried beneath all that peated smoke.

90% of all Scotch Whiskies sold are Blends.
Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
Beer and malt Whisky seem to have quite a bit in common. Both drinks begin with malted barley, which deliver the enzymes and sugars needed for fermentation when steeped in hot water. The two go their separate ways at the wash stage, where they're fermented or aged to become the adult beverages you know and love.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
The number of stills in the Jura distillery were expanded from two to four, in 1978.
