This is an 11-year-old Oban from the 2023 Special Release series, bottled at 58% ABV in a 70cl bottle. The Malt Master finished it in Caribbean pot still rum casks, inspired by the rhythms of calypso, adding tropical notes of sugar cane and mango to the distillery's blend of Highland and Island styles.
The nose is fresh and faintly maritime, with sea breeze, seaweed, warm dunes and a hint of iodine, backed by lemon and tropical sugar cane and mango. The palate is very smooth, fruity, citrusy and lightly salty, balanced by a persistent spiciness. The finish is quite short, spicy and cooling, with a light sweet aftertaste that lengthens with water.
