Specification: Jim Murray scored different batches of Pure Malt Black with 92 and 95 points respectively. This is a great dram, a blended malt made up of whisky from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries. Full of fruit, balanced oak, peat and toffee.
Specification: A combination of rich sweetness with a smoky dryness and appetising spice distinguishes this lovingly-matured Highland malt. Oban 14 Years Old is best served neat in a tumbler, perhaps with a little cool spring water.
