Diageo, the world’s largest spirits company, as well as the planet’s largest distiller of Scotch whisky, has been releasing each year, since 2001, a selection of 10 special releases from its hallowed whisky vaults.
The latest 2018 releases consist of bottlings from stocks of now closed distilleries, and special new expressions from their existing lineup of single malts, which features both extra young and extra old age statements, whiskies bottled at cask strength or whiskies not previously available as single malts.
This latest Diageo expression was drawn from European refill oak butts, bottled at cask strength.
The Oban 21-year-old is defined by a light quality with notes of nutmeg and spice that make way to subtle hints of fruit and sherry.
Presentation: 57.9%, 70cl
