Established in 1810, the Isle of Jura is found north-west of the Island 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 Jura was able 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.
The Isle of Jura Turas Mara honours the islanders who migrated to North America in 18th and 19th century, ‘Turas Mara’ meaning long journey in Scots Gaelic. It is a non-age statement single malt matured in mixture of Bourbon barrels, Sherry butts, French Oak Casks and port pipes. The choice and sheer number of different casks reflects the exotic and unique flavor that comes from wood sourced from around the globe. This Single Malt will simply leave you craving for more and everso a little more…

Piotr,
Nice easygoing whisky.
Michael,
This would be a nice "table whiskey": not too peaty or smoky or complex. A nice sweet balance that doesn't linger too long.
Joshua,
Perfect amount of smoke hidden in this one. Its sweet. Plenty of flavors to explore and find. I liked this one.
Tony,
Beautiful rich amber color. Fine fruit bouquet. While flavor is simpler than expected, and finish is shorter than expected, still an enjoyable dram
Bryan,
Very smooth, not aggressive in the least.
