Description
Aged in small casks, this Oban is a little lighter than the 14 year old version, but also shows a little more saltiness and minerality. A great aperitif, or a good whisky to explore for those looking to get away from the standard Highland malts.
Appearance: rich antique gold. Nose: oily, waxy and nutty, balanced by ripe orchard fruits. Notes of almond fruit cake on denser Christmas pudding, with cereal and orange behind. Body: medium to rich. good viscosity. Palate: The comforting chewiness of rich fruit-bread, hints of orange zest and clove, growing drier, still minty, with crisp green apple. Finish: long, quite syrupy at first, then drying, with elegant coating tannins rich in dark chocolate character. 43%abv – Dried Fruit and Nut –
