The Oban distillery is located in the west of Scotland in the small harbour town of the same name, which has grown up around the distillery. The Whisky belongs to the 'Classic Malts Selection'.
Oban today has a resident population of 8,500 and is the unofficial capital of the West Highlands. With panoramic views of the mountains, lochs and islands which have captivated artists, authors, composers, and poets for centuries, it is no surprise that Oban is a magnet for travellers from all over the world.
Oban is made using only the finest barley, malted to the distillery's own particular specification. Partly germinated barley is gently dried in a kiln where a light peat smoke gives the malt a distinctive character and taste. The result is the smoky, malty dryness in the flavour and finish of Oban.
The fermented wort is heated in Oban's copper pot wash still to separate out alcohol from water. The vapor rises through the still and is condensed back into liquid in the worm tub condenser.
An elegantly matured single malt that balances opulent fruit flavours with rich peat smoke and spicy wood, culminating in a long, smooth, finish.
