Picture of Oban 14 Year Old Whisky

❄️ Chill Filtered

🖍 Added Colour

Colour 🌈 : Caramel

Nose👃🏼 : Surprising hits of butter tablet (crumbly fudge), toffee, orange peel, salty sea air and hints of smoke

Taste 👅 : Almost a fresh taste of orange cordial followed by a sizzling campfire that gives way to a subtle smoke. Further sips open up sweeter flavours of hidden toffee with hints of chocolate

Finish 🏁 : Lingering light smoke leads into malt followed by dry oak

Thoughts 💭 :  I thoroughly expected this to be a smoky dram but was surprised (not in a bad way) to find how subtle the smoke actually is. Instead this was an incredibly fresh dram with lovely complexity, balance and smoothness that makes it pleasant to sip

Sláinte!
