In 1984, Jura casked a small quantity of unambiguously excellent single malt whisky. Rare and richly aromatic, the Jura 1984 Vintage reveals an intense and uncensored taste that’s spent the past thirty years biding its time in American white oak, Amoroso and Apostoles Olorso sherry butt casks. Some say a deep breath in reaps rewards in hints of honey, vanilla and peach syrup, while other drinkers find truth in ripe pineapple developing into hidden notes of bitter chocolate and morello cherries.

This limited edition whisky honours the island’s connection to writer George Orwell, who penned dystopian classic Nineteen Eighty-Four right here on our shores. And with only 1,984 individually numbered bottles available, its intense flavour makes for a privilege only to be enjoyed by a select and thoughtful few.
