Oban

14YO Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

Oban is one of Scotlands oldest and smallest distilleries It was founded in 1794 and the West Highland port town of the same name has grown around the distillery It is the one Single Malt Scotch Whisky in which the rich complex flavours of the Highlands meet and mingle with the peaty maritime character of the Islands Balancing autumn fruits and sea air Oban whisky owes its rich and rewarding Highland character to its very long fermentation process The tiny lamp glassshaped copper pot stills that make Obans Scotch are among the smallest in Scotland and the liquor they distil is slowly condensed in wooden worm tubs outside among the rooftops exposed to the salted sea air bringing a distinct depth of flavour said to go very well with salted caramel Oban 14 Year Old is a superb combination of rich sweetness and smoky dryness with fruity notes of oranges pears and dried figs plus hints of seasalt and peat smoke notes It works well as an accompaniment to seafood like oysters or smoked salmon giving them new depths of flavour
