Small casks, small bay, small town. Big Whisky.
Long before Oban was a lovely seaside resort town on the West Coast of Scotland, John and Hugh Stevenson built their first still house there in 1794. So the town literally grew up around the Whisky — we're no city planning experts, but it doesn't sound as a bad way for a town to grow.
The blokes at Oban have only one wash and one spirit still and the Whisky they produce is considered one of the classic malts of Scotland — a virtual national treasure. Oban is in the Highlands, but its position on the far western coast gives their spirit a very unique character.
Oban Little Bay is a bit redundant since the word “oban” already means “little bay” in Scots Gaelic. Like all Oban Whiskies, this is a fine Single Malt. But Little Bay is also their first NAS — which means that it is a combination of their Single Malt across a range of ages that were married in small ex-Bourbon barrels.
Oban Little Bay has all of that lovely coastal character, but with a gentle, heather quality. Sweetness plays with the spice just like cool breeze plays with the warm sun in that small bay.

Ratings & Reviews
Ryan,
I really enjoyed the Oban Little Bay. Oban 14 year is one of my favourites, and comparing the two there are a lot of similarities, though I do think i prefer the 14. To me, the Little Bay was a little lighter and fruitier than Oban 14. In my area, Little Bay can be hard to find, and the price on Flaviar is the best I’ve seen, so to me it was well worth it and I might pick it up again.
Brendan,
Sweet with a hint of salt and smoke.
Kevin,
The little bottle from the little bay that could. I've been wary of these non-aged expressions, but this one is excellent, and at the right price point. A fruity nice. Spicy on the palate, but no peat. Just smooth. Butterscotch and vanilla.
Mahyad,
One of the best Obans I’ve ever taste. Nice smooth caramel flavor. I always keep a bottle of this in stock in my home bar.
guest,
Smooth, sweet & simply sip-worthy!
