Oban distils in a small coastal town on Scotland's west coast, and this 11 year old comes from the 2023 Special Releases. Limited bottlings like this tend to disappear, so they usually end up either in a collection or on the table at a good gathering.
Works as a gift for the friend who already has the standard bottles, and it is easy to include in a Mid-Autumn or year-end order.
Tasting notes
West Highland coastal malts usually sit between Highland richness and a faint sea-salt note, typically showing orchard fruit, honey, a hint of smoke and a dry, salty finish.
