Oban Distillery

Oban Distillery

The Brand

Oban distillery was built before the town of the same name, producing a West Highland single malt whisky that falls between the dry, smoky style of the islands and the lighter, sweeter malts of the Highlands.

Founded in 1794, and owned by Diageo, Oban is primarily known for its 14 year old malt, which is marketed as part of Diageo's "Classic Malts" range.

Also available is a Distiller's Edition finished in a Montilla Fino sherry cask, an 18 year old and a rare 32 year old edition. More recently, Oban introduced a non age statement, called Oban Little Bay.

Gateway to the Isles

You can find Oban in the bustling seaside resort that has grown up around Oban distillery in the two centuries since it set up home in a fishing village. The West Highland single malt is still produced in the same unhurried, traditional fashion that was developed when the distillery opened in 1794.

Oban is a smoky, olive gold single malt whisky crafted at the frontier between the West Highlands and the Islands of Scotland. A combination of light smoke, medium richness and appetising spice. Our misty, maritime location with its abundance of heather and peat, is perfectly echoed in the malt whisky produced at our home, one of the oldest licensed distilleries in Scotland.
