A rare, coastal Highland malt of exceptional depth

The story behind it

The maker

Founded by brothers John and Hugh Stevenson in the late 18th century, Oban has remained an integral pillar of the local community for generations. As a vital component of the Classic Malts Selection, the distillery is highly regarded for its unhurried craft and small, boutique-scale production.

How it is made

Established in 1794, the Oban Distillery is one of Scotland's oldest and smallest active distilleries, nestled in the heart of the coastal town that grew around it. Its long fermentation and slow distillation in small copper pot stills help define its iconic maritime-meets-Highland character.
