The 2022 edition of the Distillers Edition, an exquisite Highland single malt from Oban Distillery has undergone a dual maturation process within casks imbued with the essence of Montilla Fino sherry. This harmonious fusion of dry, fruity sherry gracefully enhances the whisky's unique, delicate salinity and light character.
This 14 Year Old single malt has been made in the heart of Oban for over 200 years in one of Scotland oldest distilleries. Influenced by the nearby islands, this Oban malt offers a taste of heather becoming smoky with a sweet malty characteristic.
Oban Little Bay, the unique process of marrying the whiskies in their smallest casks (American Standard Barrels) allows more interaction, thereby delivering a fruity richness and a distinctly deep smoothness with the signature distillery character of citrus and sea salt.
Oban whisky is a single malt Scotch whisky that has captured the hearts of whisky enthusiasts all over the world. It is distilled in a small coastal town in the West Highlands of Scotland, where the air is crisp, and the water is pure. The distillery is situated on the shores of Oban Bay, and it has been producing some of the finest whiskies for over 200 years.
The Oban distillery was founded in 1794 by the Stevenson brothers, Hugh and John, who were traders from Glasgow. They chose the town of Oban for its location, which was ideal for shipping their whisky to the mainland and beyond. The distillery has remained in operation ever since, surviving two World Wars and several economic downturns.
The whisky produced at Oban is known for its unique flavour profile, which is a result of the distillery's location and production process. The whisky is made using only the finest barley, which is malted and then mashed with water from Loch Glenn a'Bhearraidh. The water is known for its purity and contributes to the distinct flavor of the whisky.
The mash is then fermented in traditional wooden washbacks before being distilled in two copper pot stills. The stills at Oban are some of the smallest in Scotland, which allows the whisky to take on a more concentrated flavour. The spirit is then aged in oak casks for at least 14 years, during which time it takes on a rich, complex flavor.
Oban produces a range of whiskies, including the Oban 14 Year Old, which is the flagship expression. This whisky has a rich, smooth flavour with notes of fruit, spice, and smoke. The Oban Distillers Edition is also highly sought after, as it is finished in Montilla Fino sherry casks, which give it a unique sweetness and complexity.
In addition to producing some of the finest whiskies in Scotland, the Oban distillery also offers tours to visitors. The tour takes visitors through the production process, from the milling of the barley to the bottling of the whisky. Visitors can also sample the whisky and learn about the history of the distillery and the town of Oban.
Overall, Oban whisky and their distillery offer a unique and authentic Scottish experience. The whisky produced is of the highest quality and has a distinct flavour profile that sets it apart from other whiskies. The distillery is steeped in history and tradition, and a visit to Oban is a must for anyone who appreciates fine whisky and Scottish culture.
