Color: Golden Nectar (just a hint darker than Oban 14), thin long streaky legs - slightly oily Nose: Butterscotch, Fig Newtons (a medley of the bread and sweet fig paste), Citrus - but not the same sharp citrus as the 14. An overall sweeter, but less complex nose. Taste: Initial mildly sweet oily mouthfeel. A bitter bite (Cloves? Soap?) is present that cuts that initial sweetness. Bubbly citrus along with hints of vanilla and caramel. A touch of spice rounds out the palate. Finish: Along with the typical caramel sweetness that lingers on the tongue, the bitter note presents itself like a Grapefruit rind - almost neutralizing the palate and drying the mouth. Overall: This offering from Oban isn’t as sweet, and is more bitter than the 14. I enjoy the nose, and the bitterness is a nice changeup, but would rather spend the extra ~$15 for what I consider to be a much better dram. (5/3/20)
