First thing that comes to mind when drinking Oban is fruit. An overwhelming amount of fruit. Typically, I lean more toward oak cask or bourbons but this isn't horrible. Oban 14 is sweet and tart and I can see this being a great higher end whiskey for those that aren't hooked on typical bourbon or oak cask type flavor profiles. This whiskey is fruity, sweet and ends with a kiss of peat smoke. To me its simply an agreeable and pleasant whiskey but at this price point, it does rub elbows with some of the best of the best. Is it worth it?
