OBAN LITTLE BAY 750 ml

Description: Dark amber in colour, Oban Little Bay has a rich and vibrant malty nose with dried apple, dried plums, caramel, honey, allspice and oak. There’s a solid balance between the rich and spicy characteristics. The entry is very flavourful and expressive, matching the nose quite well with toasted malt, green apple, dried apricot, salt, chocolate and orange peel. In the mid-palate the real impact of the small cask finish is quite apparent as the spice elements noticeably increase with clove and oak without abandoning the sweet dried fruit underneath. After the peak of the mid-palate, Oban Little Bay backs off quite a bit for a light acidic and slightly spicy finish. It’s a fairly light and slightly dry finish that ends fairly clean.
