Description

This is a limited edition, distillery-exclusive bottling from Oban, named "Old Teddy" and released in 2019 as the first in "The MacLeans" series. It celebrates the legacy of the MacLean family, particularly Old Teddy Maclean, a first-generation master distiller who joined Oban in 1953. The whisky was personally selected by his grandson, Derek Maclean, and matured in a blend of refill American oak hogsheads and ex-bodega sherry butts. Only 3,960 bottles were produced.

Nose
Immediate rich red fruit quality sherry notes with Oban's core orange peel, honey, and brine character. Raspberry, cherry, orange peel, brine, raisin, oxidized grape, oloroso funk, tamarind, vanilla, cocoa nib and spice notes. Also green apple, fresh leaves, cut grass, caramel, Scottish tablet, red apple skin, cookie dough, lemon zest, grainy cereals and oaky aromas.
Palate
Richer than nose suggests, robust with gripping malt and bittersweet cereals. Sweet and juicy notes reminiscent of fresh apple juice, melon, squeezed lemon. Crisp green apple, peardrop sweets, freshly mown grass, yeast, milk chocolate, sugary Scottish tablet and warm biscuits. Warming woody spice and burnt oranges. Creamy-smooth texture, sweet overall with a trace of salt in mid-palate.
Finish
Very good length and intensity, with honey comb, currants, black tea and baking spices. Long and spicy, with a shake of white pepper. Lightly drying, peppery heat of the spice still clear. Sweeter characteristics slowly fade to reveal biscuity malt and peppery gingery spices. Hint of salt adds to freshness.
