Oban 14 is a Highland single malt from the small coastal distillery in the town of Oban, bottled at 86 proof. It sits between the lighter Speyside style and the peaty island malts: dried fig, honey and malt up front, then oak and a salty sea-air finish. That middle ground makes it an easy entry into coastal whisky and a steady everyday dram for people who find heavily peated Islay malts too much. Against rivals it is milder and less smoky than Talisker or Lagavulin, and rounder than most 12-year Speysides.

Reviewers treat Oban 14 as a dependable, well-balanced coastal malt. They praise the honey-and-fig sweetness and the salty finish, and often call it a good first single malt. The common complaint is that it is gentle rather than bold.
Oban 14 Year Old is a single malt Scotch whisky that draws on both Highland and coastal influences. It is bottled at 86 proof and comes from a distilling tradition that goes back centuries.
The flavor is delicately balanced, with notes of dried figs and honey-sweet spices. The finish is long and smooth-sweet, with oak wood and a hint of salt air.
It is best served neat in a tumbler, with a splash of cool spring water if desired.
