Description

Whiskey products in Oban, a place where the land and the sea meet, generally have fruity notes, a medium body and distinctive spicy traits.

Perfume

Perfume

Very mineral and coniferous, with notes of seaweed, freshly cut meadow and lemon just mentioned. It is also possible to pick cherries that give it a bit of sweetness and then return to the harshest character with notes of orange juice and a pinch of smoke. There is also a mix of honey mixed with caramel. Undoubtedly particular to the smell and very distinctive though contrasting between sweet and bitter.

Color

Color

Gold color with amber reflections

Taste

Taste

Of medium body, it comes with vanilla, pleasant woody notes, honey, but also toasted dried fruit, primarily hazelnuts and a slightly hinted almond tip. Shortly cherry, but predominates an essence of malt, very full and dense. It is also possible to see a note of dried leather and background spices that give it a similar look - Bourbon. Even here, as in the smell, there is a contrast between the two facets of whiskey: on the one hand, sweeter notes and, on the other hand, notes that tend to sap and aspro. Overall interesting but not perfectly integrated. Finish medium long, somewhat dry and with a pleasant note of sea breeze. At the same time it is lively and fresh.

Serve at:

14 -16 °C.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1793
In the heart of the small town of Oban, on the west coast of Scotland, stands the homonymous distillery, whose name has become legendary thanks to the production of Single Malts appreciated all over the world. It is a small urban distillery, one of the last survivors, founded in 1794 in what was then a small fishing village, then developed thanks to the success of the distillery.
Oban's Single Malt Whiskey features a unique and unmistakable style known as the "West Highland flavor", which represents a perfect balance between the highly smoked and phenolic style of whiskey produced in the islands and the lighter and sweetest of the Highlands. In the small Oban Distillery we only use two traditional 'pot still' almonds and oak barrels for aging, including barrels containing sherry Montilla Fino.
The production of Oban Distillery is limited in quantity but surprising and exciting in quality: 670,000 liters per year, of which only 20% is bottled as Single Malt. The distillery tip of the distillery is the Single Malt 14 years old, becoming part of the 6 most representative "Classic Malts of Scotland". The "Distiller's Edition" is a precious gift for enthusiasts: a splendid Scotch with final refinement in sherry barrels. Fruity, spicy and medium-bodied, the Whiskey of the Oban Distillery is the pride of a small coastal town, a blessing for all whiskey lovers. Read more

Story The Oban Distillery is one of the oldest in Scotland and its history is closely linked to that of the homonymous town in which it is located. The small center has been developed around the distillery, which was founded in 1794 and was the heart of the life of the local community right from the start. Its founders, John and Hugh Stevenson, are also reminded of having founded the town. The property was maintained by the Stevenson family until 1869 when, following the death of Thomas Stevenson, Hugh's son, was lost. In 1883, J.Walter Higgin acquired the entire production plant, refurbishing it after dismantling between 1890 and 1894. The reconstruction took place taking into account all the features that made Oban's whiskey famous.
