Oban Single Malt Scotch The Distillers Edition Double Matured

Double Matured. Montilla Fino Finish. Distiller's Edition. Oban — Diageo's annual Distiller's Edition release of Oban, presenting the standard 14-year spirit double-matured with a finish in Montilla Fino sherry casks from the Montilla-Moriles region of Spain.

The Distiller's Edition series is Diageo's annual premium finishing program across its Classic Malts range — each distillery receives a different wine or sherry cask finish that complements its specific spirit character. Oban's Montilla Fino finish adds dry, nutty sherry complexity to the coastal salt, heather, and light smoke of the standard 14 Year, extending the expression without obscuring its maritime identity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Montilla Fino sherry?

A dry, nutty sherry from the Montilla-Moriles region of Spain, similar to Jerez Fino but made from Pedro Ximénez grapes rather than Palomino. Its dry, oxidative character adds complexity without sweetness, making it a complementary finish for the already-coastal Oban spirit.

How does the Distiller's Edition differ from the standard 14 Year?

The standard 14 Year is aged in refill American and European oak. The Distiller's Edition adds a second maturation period in Montilla Fino casks — adding dry, nutty complexity without changing the maritime core character.
