Themed 'Spirited Xchange', this year's bottlings represent cross-cultural collaboration with a range of Single Malt expressions inspired by countries from around the world.

Kommentar:
Seit 2022 ist Oban auch ein Pflichkauf der Special Release Abfüllung geworden. Geglücktes Experiment kann man nur sagen.

Kommentar:
Exzellenter Oban in Fassstärke, das Rum Casc Finish fügt dem von Natur aus bereits Komplexen Oban viele neue Schichten hinzu. Sehr Teuer, aber verdammt noch mal sein Geld Wert. Einziger Wehrmutstropfen - vermutlich chill Filtered, vielleicht auch ein Klecks Farbe. Maritime Notes Seaweed Heather Ginger Salt
Herstellerbeschreibung
on 28.09.2023
Aroma: kraftvolle Kombination mit tropischen Aromen von Zuckerrohr und Mangos treffen auf den fruchtig-salzigen Brennereicharakter von Oban. Wärmende Akzente und sommerliche Factten kommen hinzu.

Geschmack: Zitrusnoten verbinden sich mit Anklängen tropischer Früchte und einer angenehm trockenen Schärfe. Weiche, ölige Textur mit angenehmer Süße, reichhaltige Fruchtaromen etwas Salz.

Abgang: Eindringlich, intensiv und Würzig.
Hans
on 05.05.2023
Aroma: Very fresh coastal, ozone, loads of vanilla, oranges, peaches, apricots, whiff of (campfire) smoke, dark caramel

Taste: Warm, mouth coating, very oily, vanilla, citrusy, olives, gingery, for 57% quite smooth, dried apricots, mint note coming through getting stronger with water, peaches

Finish: Long, warm, olives, very pleasant, drying, after some time the oranges appear, going over in blood oranges (very nice), more caramel coming through, and indeed plums

Comment: As all Oban whiskies this one needs also time in the glass to really open up.
