Oban 12 Year Special Release 2021 700mL

Oban 12 Year Special Release 2021 is a limited cask-strength Highland malt that gives Oban’s coastal style more grip and concentration than the core range. It suits drinkers who enjoy official special releases without jumping into extreme peat or sherry.

From the Producer

Oban was founded in 1794 on the west coast of Argyll and the town effectively grew up around the distillery, which still runs on just two stills and remains one of Scotland's smallest. Its house style sits between Highland and island character, with a coastal edge that comes through clearly at cask strength. This release is part of Diageo's annual Special Releases series for 2021.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Citrus peel, sea salt, honey, pepper and light smoke.
• Palate: Concentrated and lively, with malty sweetness, maritime character, orchard fruit and cask-strength spice.
• Finish: Long and warming, with coastal dryness, pepper and a trace of smoke.

Best For

Best for Oban followers, Diageo Special Release collectors and whisky drinkers who want a more intense Highland coastal profile.
