What started as a brewery, was converted into a distillery in 1794, making Oban one of the oldest and most prestigious distilleries in Scotland. This makes it perfect for Diageo's annual Special Release series. Oban 2022 Special Release 10 Year Old is a flavorful single malt Scotch expression that was initially matured in first-fill, refill, and new American oak casks, then in Amontillado sherry casks. Bottled at 114.2 proof, the whisky features a balance of maritime aromas, fruit notes, and spiciness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet your bottle of this single malt Scotch today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Oban\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            After moving with their widowed mother to the small port city of Oban (situated in northwest Scotland), John and Hugh Stevenson took jobs building and repairing boats at the city's boatyard, a trade they had learned from their late father. In the 1790s, the brothers left their boat-making jobs and founded a brewery in the city. In 1794, they converted their brewery into Oban Distillery, one of the oldest and most prestigious distilleries in Scotland. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFor nearly a century, Oban Distillery remained in the hands of the Stevenson family. In 1883, however, J. Walter Higgin purchased the distillery and began renovations. While Higgin renovated both the distillery's equipment and structure, he did so piecemeal in order to ensure that the distillery was able to meet the uninterrupted demand for its whisky. Today, over 100 years later, Oban Distillery remains substantially the same as it was after Higgin's refurbishment.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/oban\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Oban bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
