Oban The Distillers Edition (Distilled in 2007/Bottled in 2021), 43%

Fragrant stone fruits fill the nose: sliced white peaches, canned peaches, and apricots. Stay awhile, and earthier notes of sweet peat, fresh flowers, and cedar plank emerge. The palate is smooth, and though it’s light there is an incredible creamy texture that’s furthered by candied orange, applesauce, and warm apple crisp. The finish has divine depth, and is rich with vanilla frozen custard and more of those initial stone fruit flavors.
