Oban 11 year old The Soul of Calypso

Oban 11 Year Old Special Release 2023, bottled at natural cask strength, embodies an explosion of vitality and a vibrant encounter of Caribbean cultures. This unique expression celebrates the passionate soul of the Caribbean, merging the frenetic rhythms of calypso. Finished in Caribbean Pot Still rum casks, the Oban 11 Year Old reveals unexpected tropical notes of sugar cane and mango, adding to Oban's clever fusion of Highland and Island styles. A glint of gold announces the summer sun, while a fresh sea breeze, backed by notes of citrus and enhanced by hints of tropical fruit and a dry spiciness, quickly brings the carnival closer. On the palate, an oil-smooth texture is accompanied by a joyously sweet, richly fruity, and lightly salty taste that dances across the tongue, finishing with an insistently spicy beat.
