Isle of Jura Superstition
Isle of Jura Superstition is a non-age-statement (NAS) single malt Scotch whisky produced at the Jura Distillery on the remote Isle of Jura off the west coast of Scotland. Renowned for its "subtly sweet yet smoky" profile, this whisky was designed as a balanced, lightly peated alternative to more intense Islay malts, acting as a bridge between delicate and heavily peated styles. The expression was officially discontinued in early 2018 as part of a brand range overhaul.
