Oban Little Bay of Caves — Batch No. 2 48% Abv

Single Malt Scotch Whisky – West Highland, Scotland

ABV: 43%

Style: Rich, coastal, honeyed Highland malt with intensified small‑cask depth

Appearance - Deep gold with amber‑bronze edges — slightly darker than standard Little Bay, hinting at concentrated cask influence.

Nose - A beautifully layered, coastal‑sweet Highland nose: Honeycomb, caramel, and malted barley. Orange oil, ripe peach, and dried apricot. A soft maritime thread of sea spray, salted breeze, and gentle smoke. Cocoa nib, nutmeg, oak shavings, and a touch of dried fruit from the tighter, smaller casks

Palate - Silky, rounded, and richer than the core Little Bay. Vanilla fudge, toffee, and sweet malt. Spiced citrus, ginger warmth, and dark chocolate. A coastal savouriness: sea salt, charred oak, soft peat smoke. The small‑cask maturation brings a denser mid‑palate, with more concentrated fruit and spice

Finish - Medium‑long, warming, and gently maritime. Honeyed malt, citrus peel, oak spice, and a final whisper of smoke, salted caramel, and dark chocolate dust.

A richer, more concentrated take on Oban’s coastal style. Batch No. 2 amplifies the honeyed sweetness, citrus, and gentle smoke while adding deeper oak spice and a touch more chocolate from the small‑cask treatment.

A richer, deeper expression of Oban’s coastal Highland style. Honey, citrus, gentle smoke, and warm oak spice meet a denser, more concentrated small‑cask character — elegant, warming, and quietly complex.
