The main route on to Jura is via the small vehicle ferry from Port Askaig on the Isle of Islay. It takes just 5 minutes to cross to Feolin on the southern tip of Jura. Tel: 01496 840 681. This is the first major work to be written on one of the largest and most important of the islands of the Hebrides. Probably the Hinba of the early church, Jura's geographic situation made it important through succeeding centuries through the Viking period and into that of the Lordship of the Isles. As Pennant's extract shows the island carried a fairly large population right through the period of Campbell domination into the era of emigration and clearance.'

A fitting tribute to a lifetime of work, this special expression allows us to say thank you to Willie Cochrane after 39 years of work at Jura Distillery. His contribution over 11 years as Distillery Manager has helped shape the future of Jura Whisky, so we hope you'll raise a dram with us to toast to the man himself. Sláinte!

It doesn’t have an age statement and was finished in casks that have previously held 20 year old Pedro Ximénez sherry. Does that mean proper solera casks? Maybe.

At the bar on the ferry, a local chap overhearing our English and American accents singing along to the Mull of Kintyre was keen to let us know that, after living on Arran for 54 years, he was still considered an “incomer” to the islands, and so we probably would be too. We were fine with that; the five of us were on an island hopping bike trip for a reason – the smell and sound of choppy seas and salty winds a sign of heading somewhere new.We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. is one of just 4 cottages in the unspolit Lussagiven Bay, 16 miles north of Craighouse.
