|
|
We rarely see an official, original distillery, single cask bottling from the Isle of Jura distillery but that is exactly what the island distillery owners Whyte & Mackay has just generously bottled to be auctioned off to raise funds in aid of the Scottish mental health charity - Scottish Association for Mental Health. The Jura Distillery Cask, a 19 year old Single Cask No. 1708 which produced 470 bottles will be auctioned via the Whisky Auctioneer website.

| It will be interesting to see what this goes for at auction with 470 bottles available, I will try for a bottle if it doesn't go too high. |

| I signed up for updates, there is a lot of bottles in the auction Andy so the pricing may not go too high, I do fancy a bottle myself, a single cask, cask strength 19 year old Jura is certainly different to what is available form Jura and there older stuff can be very good in my experience. |

| Glenfiddich recently had a charity auction for their Spirit of Speyside bottling (a 12 year old sherry butt) and I thought the same thing - as there are 400 odd bottles, then the price shouldn't be too high! Unfortunately this was not the case...the cheapest was around £250 so I won't hold out much hope for this bottling. Hopefully I'm proven wrong! |
