Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with warm copper tones.
Nose
Ripe dark fruit—prune, fig and blackberry—unfolds with candied orange, cocoa and toasted almond. Sherry-cask richness introduces toffee, raisin and warm spice, while oak and a whisper of coastal salt frame the bouquet, yielding an elegant, velvety aroma with poised depth.
Palate
Rich, velvety palate of dried orange, raisin and cocoa, tempered by sherry sweetness. Pecan and toffee mingle with polished oak, while a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg lingers. A light sea-salt lift threads through the long, balanced finish, delivering Oban’s coastal depth with luxurious confectionery warmth.
Finish
Long, elegant finish with rich sherried sweetness, fig, date and orange peel, woven through dark chocolate, toffee and spice. A subtle maritime whisper, complemented by oak, fading to a warm, refined glow.
