About this deal

The vibrancy of our 14 Year Old Rye Cask is matched only by the spirit of the community on the island. The close-knit group are the inspiration for us to produce whiskies which transport you to Jura with every sip. The remote Scottish island provides the canvas from which these dedicated islanders take their inspiration and the distillery provides the means to bring this to life. Our stills are amongst the tallest in Scotland, which create a light new make spirit with a citrus and pine character, and we use peated malted barley for less than four weeks a year which is added sparingly to provide body and seasoning to each whisky. This allows the Jura distillery to provide a unique home to craft our spirit. Jura is an island nestled off the West Coast of Scotland. With only one road, one pub, one whisky distillery and 212(ish) people, Jura is as beautiful as it is remote.

Taste: On the palate, the whisky reveals toffee apple richness and pecan pie with layers of cinnamon, vibrant vanilla, honey, cacao and hazelnut. Drawing inspiration from classic European Pilsner's and brewed using yeast from Berlin, Rugate Pilsnor (4.7%) is a crisp and clean, easy drinking beer. As we are primarily an ale brewer our knowledge of lager brewing is limited so we brought in Carl who has been a friend of the brewery for several years to assist us in this new venture.”

Originally thought of by Rudgate's managing director Craig, the release of Pilsnor last month had been postponed for two years due to Covid. Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Rathfinny Wine Estate co-owner Sarah Driver said: “The winery team at Rathfinny have crafted a beautiful Blanc de Noir that retains the integrity of the pristine grapes that were grown and harvested by our vineyard crew and local community. And then there was a new release from one of the most isolated distilleries in Scotland. The Isle of Jura 14 Years American Rye Cask was announced in early April and is available in the UK now, but will also roll out into other key markets later this year, including the Netherlands. Warm gold in colour, Jura 14 Year Old Rye Cask is reminiscent of warm summers evenings on the island, with classic fresh notes of citrus and vanilla balancing mango, fresh mint and crushed almonds.

Family owned Sussex based wine estate, Rathfinny, has announced it's latest release, 2018 vintage Blanc De Noirs (12% ABV). If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. This product gives people who are moderating their alcohol a truly high-quality zero-alcohol alternative that showcases the flavours and characters of full-strength wine."

No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service. Accolade Wines Europe marketing director Tom Smith said: “&then is launching at a time when health and wellness is on many shoppers’ minds, with 54% of global consumers concerned about their physical and mental health and 46% actively trying to reduce their alcohol intake.

The ripe red fruits and low dosage (3.5g/l) showcased in this wine are a true reflection of the Rathfinny house style. We can’t wait to share our latest release."Nose: Reminiscent of warm evenings on the island, our classic fresh citrus and vanilla character is balanced with the herbal and floral aromas of the American Rye barrels, delivering aromas of mango, fresh mint and crushed almonds. Each bottle of Jura Whisky is a celebration of its island home and embodies the passion of those who make it – and the Jura 14 Year Old Rye Cask is no exception. But the perception of Jura seems to change. Slowly. And it’s largely thanks to independent bottlers, who release older gems such as this one, but also due to official limited editions that showcase the potential of this remote island distillery. Just recently Ruben compared an independent bottling of Jura to “old Clynelishes or more exotic malts like Glen Mhor or Banff.” High praise indeed. In celebrating the island and its community, its vital to create a whisky which offers layers of flavour and a touch of complexity, as it perfectly reflects our inspiration.

The collection will initially launch with two varietals; a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Chardonnay, with a 125ml glass containing just 25 calories and 1.5g of sugar.Craig said: “For several years we have been aware of a gap in our portfolio for a lager and decided to go with a traditional style as our first offering as it most suited our brewery and what we are all about. The rye casks impart notes of cinnamon, vanilla, cacao and warming honey to Jura’s signature smooth and bright profile. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products.
