Description

Towards the latter half of the 18th century, the Duke of Argyll, keen to encourage economic prosperity in the region, offered extremely low rents to people willing to settle on his lands. Two people who took advantage of this opportunity were the Stevenson brothers, who utilised a slate quarry on the island of Belnahua to construct several buildings, including a brewery, in the mainland fishing village of Oban. This is the second release in The Macleans Series, honoring Young Teddy Maclean, who followed in his father's footsteps at the Oban Distillery. It is a limited edition, distillery exclusive bottling, finished in ex-Oloroso and ex-Palo Cortado sherry casks.
