{"title":"Oban","description":"\u003cp\u003eOban is one of Scotland's most beloved and historically significant distilleries — a small, storied operation that predates the town built around it. Founded in 1794 by brothers John and Hugh Stevenson on the west coast of Scotland, nestled between the mountains and the sea at the portal between the West Highlands and the Hebrides Islands, Oban is one of the oldest continuously operating distilleries in the country — and one of the last remaining urban distilleries, sitting just 208 steps from the sea on Oban's main street. With only two copper pot stills and seven employees, every drop of Oban whisky is made by fourteen hands — a level of craft and intimacy almost unheard of in modern Scotch production. The house style strikes a beautiful balance between the robust coastal character of Island whiskies and the milder sweetness of the Highlands, with briny sea salt, honeyed fruit, gentle smoke, and warming spice defining every expression. From the iconic 14 Year — the perfect introduction to the Oban style — to the rich and complex 18 Year, the sherry-kissed Distiller's Edition, and the exciting new cask-finished limited releases, every Oban bottle carries 230 years of West Highland tradition.

Lovely sweet aromas of toffee and sticky pudding greet the nose, with subtle smoke more a waft than a plume, and a surprising amount of tropical fruit — caramelized pineapple, lychee, orange — plus a dusting of zesty cinnamon and nutmeg. The palate opens with lush buttercream sweetness, followed by tinned fruit, pineapple and orange with a strong caramelized element, sherry-like notes of almond at the mid-palate, and crunchy sea salt, finishing on a bright, acidic note like apple cider with lemon — clean, balanced, and memorable. Bottled at 43% ABV and part of Diageo's Classic Malts series, the 14 Year beautifully bridges the gap between the robust coastal character of Island malts and the soft, fruity sweetness of the Highlands. A superb starting point for single malt newcomers and endlessly rewarding for seasoned drinkers alike.

Part of Diageo's annual Distiller's Edition series, this yearly release takes the classic 14 Year Oban and further matures it for 6 to 18 months in first-fill Montilla Fino sherry butts — casks that have only ever held sherry before, adding a lush layer of richness to the house's signature maritime character. The transformation is genuinely magical. Sweetness of dark fruit, dark chocolate, and biscotti envelop the nose, while the palate delivers orange peel, sea salt, honey, dried fig, spice, and smoked malt dryness, with a long finish carrying hints of salt, peat, and oaky sweetness. The Fino cask adds elegant light sherry with a wave of deep black cherry and sweet apple juice — a very nice blending of the Oban style with a delicate sherry fruit basket. Bottled at 43% ABV. For Oban fans this is the bottle that takes everything you love about the 14 Year and makes it even better.

Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2016, the nose brings toasty biscuit, citrus, and vanilla with linseed oiled chamois leather and lavender, while the palate delivers brown bread crust, richly fruity malt loaf, clove and cinnamon spice with zesty orange, crushed mint and lavender.
