This new, creamy-smooth expression from Oban was aged to perfection in European Oak Butts and American Oak Hogshead Barrels before being finished in Oloroso and Palo Cortado Sherry Casks. On the nose, Oban 15 Cask Strength Sherry Cask Finish opens with aromas of dried raisin and orchard fruit, giving way to charred orange rind and lemon peel. The whisky's palate delivers layered notes of burnt sugar, cinder toffee and a slight hint of almonds, European Oak imparts tannins, pepper, and spice, culminating in a warm lingering finish of brown sugar.  

Tucked away in the West Highlands of Scotland, Oban Distillery has been producing exceptional whisky since 1794. Oban 15 Cask Strength Sherry Cask Finish was created by the distillery's seven artisans, inspired by the flavors and traditions of southern Spain's Andalusia region. Reflecting the distillery's long-standing dedication to quality, Oban 15 Cask Strength Sherry Cask Finish is a true embodiment of the mastery of the seasoned distillers who carefully create Oban day by day. Under the guidance of DIAGEO Master Blender Dr. Stuart Morrison, hand-selected casks were carefully finished for over four years in Oloroso and Palo Cortado Sherry Casks, resulting in a transportive tasting experience that marries sweet dried fruits, citrus and Oban's signature maritime salinity.

"After years of development and refinement, we are proud to welcome Oban 15 Cask Strength Sherry Cask Finish," said Dr. Stuart Morrison. "The whisky is born of deliberate care and the passion of Oban's dedicated distillers."

Oban 15 Cask Strength Sherry Cask Finish is a testament to balance and detail. Like a thoughtfully curated grazing board, every note, every flavor, and every detail of this whisky is crafted to be savored. It pairs beautifully with aged meats, nutty cheeses, and briny olives, making it the ideal choice for a neat dram and a sell-set grazing board.

This limited-edition bottle is a testament to the art of appreciation, and is available at select spirits retailers nationwide with a suggested retail price of $150 for 750mL.

ABOUT OBAN DISTILLERY
The Oban Distillery—one of the oldest and smallest distilleries in Scotland—has been making fine Single Malt Whisky since 1794. Located in the heart of the town that grew up around it, Oban was founded by brothers Hugh & John Stevenson. Made by a small group of artisans, Oban is distilled in tiny lantern-shaped copper pot stills, which are among the smallest in Scotland. This results in a truly balanced, extremely smooth whisky. Situated on a little bay between the West Highlands and the Islands, a mild maritime climate with a background of heather and peat is perfectly echoed in the malt whisky produced at Oban.
