Vital Stats: Blend of Jura whiskies, non-chilled filtered to give a traditional flavor, 46 percent alcohol by volume, sold in a 750-milliliter bottle that runs between $50 and $80. The final product comes in Jura’s elegantly simple, 750-milliliter bottle, is 46 percent alcohol by volume. It is aged for a non-specific period of time in bourbon, sherry and Limousin casks. Jura Prophecy is crafted from some of the “finest and rarest aged Jura” whiskies, and non-chilled filtered in order to “deliver an authentic taste of 1938,” the box states. Unfortunately, Jura gives much more detail on this legend that it does on what went into making the whisky. That “prophecy” supposedly came true in 1938, when Charles Campbell, blinded in one eye during World War I, supposedly fell on hard times and had to leave the island in the state predicted by the seer. In keeping with that theme, Jura Prophecy, emblazoned with hieroglyph-inspired eye, is named for the 18 th century story of an old seer who, as she was being evicted from her home by the Campbells that dominated Jura at the time, foretold that the final Campbell on the island would have one eye and carry all of his possessions in a cart drawn by a white horse. Jura Prophecy is the heavier, peatier of Isle of Jura’s four mainstay whiskies, which also include Superstition, Origin 10-year-old, and Diurach’s Own 16-year-old – all named to connect the distillery with a mystic, superstitious piece of the island’s past. ![]() Isle of Jura 10 Year Old / Bot.Yet, the subdued peat smoke flavor in Jura Prophecy – at least on the palate – becomes its strength, allowing for other earthy, spicy and sweet flavors to meld together with a complexity that a stronger peat presence wouldn’t allow.
