Oban Distillers Edition is a seriously complex single malt scotch whisky of the highest order. The founders of Oban distillery were entrepreneurs who imported and exported goods for which they could sense a demand. They would have approved of the Spanish influence brought to bear in this Montilla Fino cask wood finish. This double-matured expression has a glorious zesty nose and plenty of sweet fruit complemented by salt and chewy, roasty caramel malt.
Double Maturation: Each Distillers Edition expression undergoes a second (or double) maturation in casks that have previously held a fortified wine. The Montilla Fino cask wood finish used for this Oban expression adds complexity and depth to the already rich and full-bodied whisky.
Oban Highland Single Malt Scotch The Distillers Edition Double Matured in Montilla Fino Seasoned American Oak Casks is a must-try for any whisky lover. The Spanish influence from the Montilla Fino cask wood finish adds a unique complexity and depth to the already outstanding Oban single malt. It's a perfect gift for scotch enthusiasts or a special addition to any whisky collection.
