Description

Part of the 2023 Special Release Spirited Xchange collection, Oban The Soul of Calypso is a limited release and a first for the distillery: an 11 year old single malt from Scotland shaped by craft and cultures from elsewhere in the world. The spirit spent its 11 years finishing in Caribbean pot still rum casks, and the bottle artwork comes from Kim Thompson, an artist whose work draws on retro nostalgia, Afrofuturism, and folklore.

The aroma opens on seaweed, citrus, and mango. The palate is smooth, carrying fruit, citrus, salt, and spice, and the finish is short with a spicy-sweet edge. Bottled at 58% ABV in a 750 ml format, it works neat, over ice, or with a splash of water to bring the citrus forward.

    About Oban

    Oban Distillery has produced single malt Scotch whisky since 1794 from a spot wedged between granite cliffs and the sea on Scotland's west coast. Brothers John and Hugh Stevenson built a brewery and then a distillery beside the bay, and the harbor town of Oban grew up around their work.
