Oban Distillers Edition 2007, bottled 2021 (70cl)

New

Each Oban Distillers Edition expression undergoes a second (or 'double') maturation in casks that have previously held a fortified wine. The founders of Oban distillery were entrepreneurs who imported and exported goods for which they could sense a demand. They would have approved of the Spanish influence brought to bear in this Montilla Fino cask wood finish. A seriously complex whisky of the highest order.

    The Oban distillery is one of Scotland's smallest distilleries with just two small lantern-shaped stills. Cramped conditions led to unusually short lyne arms. Built in the centre of Oban as a brewery by town founders John and Hugh Stevenson, distilling began in 1794. Rebuilt 1890-94 by J. Walter Higgin. The distillery occupies a unique but small town centre site that prevents expansion. Closure was announced in 1968 but it was reprieved in 1972.

    This is a "something for everyone" whisky - with a very broad and balanced flavour profile.

    Nose: Malt loaf with salted butter, pickled lemons, soft, honeyed apricot, and distant bonfire smoke.

    Palate: Heaps of fruit comes through, with prunes and grapes, sultanas, and zesty marmalade, backed up by salted butterscotch and smoked oak.

    Finish: Sweet burnt sugar and warming oak spice linger.
