Win an all
expenses paid trip to the 2014 Jura
Whisky Festival.
Jura Whisky has launched a search for
the world’s best stories, with the
chance to win two all-expenses paid
trips to the 2014 Jura Whisky Festival.
Starting today, Jura Whisky is calling
on all budding storytellers to submit a
story in 1,000 characters or less. Every
fortnight for ten weeks Jura Whisky will
provide a different story theme for
inspiration. The themes kick off this
week with Travel Adventure, followed by
Day Dreams, A Brush with Death, Into the
Wild and Happily Ever After.
Art Wednesday will provide further
inspiration by producing a series of
videos which tell the stories of
interesting, influential creatives and
their work. The first two videos will
feature writer Marcel Theroux and
musician Nick Mulvey (previously of
Portico Quartet), with more to follow.
From the competition entries, three
stories will be chosen each week and
turned into bespoke illustrations by
creative agency Holler which will be
posted on to jurawhisky.com. At the end
of the ten weeks, each of the 30 winning
stories will be put to the public vote
to find the favourite. Voting will
remain open for two weeks.
The winner with the most votes will have
a once in a lifetime opportunity to
enjoy an all-expenses paid trip to Jura
for the 2014 Whisky Festival to help
select the new special edition festival
bottling which will be launched at the
2015 Festival. Staying in the luxurious
Jura Lodge, the winner will be treated
to a VIP tour, taking in all of Jura’s
‘must sees’, including a speedboat trip
to the Corryvreckan whirlpool, tea on
the beach and a visit to Barnhill where
Orwell wrote 1984.
Gemma Parkinson, Brand Manager at Jura
Whisky, said: "As the nights draw in,
the residents of Jura like to settle
down by the fire, pour a dram and swap a
story or two. In that spirit, we have
launched a season of storytelling to
celebrate tales worth sharing. Some of
Jura’s best and most loved stories, both
real and mythical, are those that have
been handed down through generations of
islanders over the years. That’s why
we’re on the hunt to find the world’s
best stories, to celebrate and reward
the art of great storytelling."
The competition, which opens today,
Thursday, 31st October, and will run right
through until Friday, 10th January 2014,
is part of Jura Whisky’s new ‘Story
Season’ campaign. For more information

best stories, including detailed terms
and conditions, visit www.jurawhisky.com
The competition is
open to entrants from all countries.
