Isle Of Jura Superstition
Jura is an island wrapped in superstition. Never cut peat before May. Always finish a bottle of Jura on the day its opened. There is a litany of strange and bewildering customs on Jura but maybe the one regarding the Ankh cross demands the greatest attention. This ancient symbol dates back to Egyptian times and is long rumored to bring good fortune. Just so long as you drink the whisky in the correct manner. The islanders believe that good luck comes by holding the bottle with the Ankh cross in the centre of your palm. Observe this ritual, they say and good health and fortune will surely follow.
