S14 - Oban Highland Single Malt 14 yr - $19 Oban Distillery, founded in 1794 is one of the oldest and smallest Scotch whisky distilleries, a tiny jewel that’s been producing whisky for nearly a quarter of a millennium.

It’s a sophisticated thing, stylistically living somewhere between the brash peatiness of an Islay malt and the more harmonious structure of a Highland whisky
