The founders of Oban distillery would have approved of the Spanish influence brought to bear with this edition’s second maturation in Montilla Fino cask wood finish.
Saline, smoke and a nice hint of mandarin orange peel. The palate is silky with oak spice and fruit notes and leads to a soft, smoky finish accented by a touch of coffee. Finished in Fino Sherry casks
(Note current stock is Distilled 2003, Bottled 2017)
APPEARANCE : Amber, rose-hued
NOSE : Outstanding. Fruity and pungent; sea salt with crushed grapes, orange zest and hints of smoke. Massively complex.
BODY : Full, rich.
PALATE : Most explosive Oban ever. Soft malt then wave upon wave of delicate yet rich fruit notes on a tide of brine.
FINISH : Sweetened Jamaican coffee and oak, with an attractive malt-biscuit effect as it dies down.
