About: This is a limited edition bottling. The Oban 14 year is a top seller.
Year sampled: 2009
Color: Caramel
Nose: Chlorine, metallic
Palate: Spicy, peppery. Floats nicely on tongue. Oily.
Finish: Stinging AND sweet, with a tang like maybe grapefruit. long, phenol.
Overall: Some people are going to love this. I'm not so easily impressed. It is smoother and better balanced than the 14 year, which is too phenol heavy for me. I don't understand why Oban is so expensive.
