Description

This Oban Little Bay Single Malt Highlands Whiskey is a whiskey produced in Scotland, sold by the Oban brand.

OBAN Little Bay Highlands Whiskey, Oban is a distillery classified in the Highlands and yet located on the Isle of the Hebrides, the marine influence is therefore great. Oban is in the West Highlands. Oban was created in 1794 and the distillery took over the activity of a brewery. This distillery is the oldest distillery in Scotland and one of the smallest. It will remain so because the land reserve on the island is very limited between the cliffs and the sea. This distillery is one of the last urban distillery, established in the main street in the city. The Oban distillery produces only 700,000 liters per year. Oban is one of the Classic Malts representing the Highlands. The Oban style is a touch of smoke, a malt with a dry and lively finish.

Oban Little Bay Single Malt Highlands Whiskey is a whiskey from the Highlands, land renowned as much for its whiskeys, which is the largest region in terms of scotch whiskey production, as for its Highlanders Games or its famous Loch Ness. In the Highlands, a region in the north of Scotland, you will find whiskeys of a breathtaking diversity, since under the same regional name 30 distilleries coexist, with styles as different as the whiskeys of the islands, with the exception of Islay (Jura, Skyes ...), whiskeys from the fertile plains of the West, whiskeys from the mountainous areas, and whiskeys from the north such as Old Pulteney and Glenmorangie. This is why the Highlands region has been subdivided into 4 production regions which are Eastern Highlands, Central Highlands, Western Highlands and Northern Highlands
