Description

Part of Diageo's 2023 Special Releases collection with the theme 'Spirited Xchange,' this 11-year-old Oban single malt, known as 'The Soul of Calypso,' was finished in Caribbean Pot Still rum casks. This unique maturation imparts unexpected tropical notes of sugar cane and mango, building on Oban's classic fusion of Highland and Island styles. Bottled at natural cask strength of 58% ABV, it offers a vibrant and complex profile.
