History:
The Island of Jura, located in the Outer Hebrides, west of the Island of Islay, has been renowned for its whisky production since 1502. The present distillery dates back to 1810. It was extended and rebuilt over the years. In 1875 the distillery was restored and new buildings added. The capacity was increased further in the 50's, 60's and 70's. Two new stills were added in 1978 in addition to the existing pair of high neck stills, which produce a light and slightly oily malt. Isle of Jura gets its malt from the Port Ellen maltings which is lightly peated.
