OBAN 12 YEARS OLD SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY SPECIAL RELEASE 2025 HEART OF THE HARBOUR

Oban matures this 12-year-old single malt in ex-bourbon American oak casks for the 2025 Special Releases Heart of the Harbor expression, where Highland warmth meets maritime character at medium body. Dry yet mild aromatics with gentle prickle show honeyed spice, sea breeze, sand dunes, seaweed, and citrus enriched by American oak's sweet-spicy depth, developing hessian notes and subtle oiliness with water. Smooth creamy texture delivers sweet tinned peaches and warming spice with toffee embracing salt-laden notes, finishing with good length and warm spiciness that mellows with water while adding salt and cooling mouthfeel. Each sip transports to Oban's harbor waterfront where syrupy peaches and home baking warmth balance fresh maritime aromas—this welcoming expression evokes coming home to Scotland's west coast distillery town.
