Jura Journey – Discontinued
The replacement for Jura Journey is the Jura Bourbon Cask. Both serve as the entry-level, non-age-statement (NAS) gateway expressions to the Jura Distillery core line up.

| Branding Focus | Abstract/Conceptual (Focus on the “journey”) | Process-focused (Explicitly calls out the wood profile) |
| ABV | 40% | 40% |
| Flavor Profile | Juicier & Fresher: Dominant fruit notes like poached pears, baked apples, and sweet sugared almonds. | Wood-Forward & Drier: Toasted coconut, vanilla cake, and more aggressive oaken spice notes. |

Despite Islay being its closest neighbour, just like Bunnahabhain and Bruichladdich, Jura ‘Origin’ is an unpeated malt. Equipped in the violin-shaped bottle that would go on to become The Jura’s trademark. Whyte & Mackay Ltd bought the brand in the mid-90s whereupon they enriched the range with older bottlings, notably in the Stillman’s Dram range.
