Oban 21 Year Old Limited Release Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (750ml)

Oban 21 Year Old Limited Release Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is one of the most distinguished expressions ever to come from this historic coastal distillery. Founded in 1794, Oban has always been defined by its small scale and unique location, wedged between sea and cliff in the heart of the Highland region. Its whisky sits at the crossroads of Highland richness and coastal West Highland brine, offering a character that is unmistakably Oban. The 21 Year Old Limited Release takes that house style and elevates it through more than two decades of careful maturation, delivering depth, structure, and complexity rarely found in the core range.

This limited edition was drawn from a select number of casks that highlight Oban’s refined balance between malt sweetness, oak maturity, and maritime influence. Over 21 long years in oak, the spirit develops a layered profile with polished wood, dried fruits, gentle spice, and the coastal salinity that ties Oban so closely to its rugged environment. The extended maturation smooths the edges while amplifying complexity, producing a whisky that is both powerful and elegant.

As a limited release, availability of the Oban 21 Year Old is extremely restricted, with each bottling eagerly sought by collectors and connoisseurs. Presented in distinguished packaging that underscores its rarity, this expression stands apart as a true showcase of Oban’s ability to produce Highland whisky with both heritage and sophistication.

Taste Notes & Food Pairings

Taste Notes Oban 21 Year Old Limited Release Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an exceptionally rare and refined expression, showcasing the depth, complexity, and elegance that comes from over two decades of maturation. The palate opens with rich honeyed malt, ripe orchard fruits, and delicate citrus, layered with toasted oak, subtle smoke, and gentle baking spices. Nuances of dried fruits, roasted nuts, and soft vanilla emerge mid-palate, leading to a long, silky, and warming finish where sweetness, oak, and delicate maritime notes meld harmoniously. Its texture is luxurious, full-bodied, and impeccably balanced, offering a profoundly rewarding sipping experience.

Food Pairings This whisky pairs beautifully with roasted or braised game and meats such as venison, roasted duck, or spiced lamb, where its honeyed sweetness, fruit, and oak enhance savory depth. It complements aged or semi-hard cheeses like Comté, aged Gouda, or Manchego, and desserts featuring nuts, dried fruits, or caramel—almond tart, fig compote, or spiced chocolate cake resonate perfectly with its layered, elegant profile. Lightly roasted nuts, citrus-glazed vegetables, or fruit-based pastries also harmonize with its smooth, complex, and long-lasting finish.
