A short ferry ride from Islay, Port Askraig takes you to the entirely unique island of Jura. As the old landing craft pulls up at Feolin you are entering a new and exciting world.
Jura means ‘the island of the deer’ as the population of red deer out numbers the 200 inhabitants [...]

Whisky galore!

There are eight distilleries on Islay and one on Jura next door which I have to say is one of the best for my taste. Each distillery has its own flavour and characteristic even though they use very similar water and peat resources.
