A bustling seaside resort has grown up around the distillery in the two centuries since it was first built in the fishing town of Oban. The West Highland malt is still produced in the same unhurried, traditional fashion and this 14 year old is a classic whisky from the distillery.
Smoky, maritime nose with hints of sticking plasters and toffee brittle.
Smoky, creamy palate with notes of marmalade, toffee apples and pear cider. A development of cloves comes late palate.
A long, malty finish with toasty oak and spice.
A true classic, Oban's 14 year old is a great coastal dram for lovers of lightly smoked, fresh malts.

Agree. The Best Scotch I have ever had myself. All in perfect balance.
Best bottle of scotch I have ever had
It tastes like paint thinner and down the drain it went!
Very, very smooth... Light wood smoke and medical notes, yes. Marine themes. Gentle sweetness balanced against some bitterness. Great... The finish with oak, and then hints of orange and again some wood smoke. Dry at the end.
In Scotland looking at a new horse and fancied a dram. Oban 14 certainly hit the spot! Light smokey flavour with hints of sweetness and citrus. Perfect for an occasional nip standing in a wet and windy field. 8/10.
