Description
Established in 1794, the Oban Distillery is one of Scotland’s oldest and smallest, famously integrated into the heart of the seaside town that grew around it. This 750ml Highland Single Malt is crafted using tiny lamp glass-shaped stills and traditional wooden worm tubs, which are exposed to the salted sea air. This unhurried production method creates a unique premium whisky South Africa enthusiasts treasure for its bridge between the dry, smoky style of the Islands and the sweet fruitiness of the Highlands. It is a cornerstone of the Diageo Classic Malts range. To experience its full depth, it is best served neat or with a splash of spring water in a classic tumbler. You can buy whisky South Africa through our secure platform and enjoy reliable liquor delivery across South Africa from Decanter Liquor.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: An inviting bouquet of rich sweetness, vanilla fudge, and orchard fruits like pears, balanced by sea salt and a hint of peat smoke.
- Palate: Full-bodied and coating with a dense texture; initial notes of malt and autumn fruits evolve into dried figs, honeyed spice and a smoky, malty dryness.
- Finish: Exceptionally long and smooth, departing with a lingering oaky sweetness, a grain of salt, and a faint, dry smoke.
