Night's Watch & Oban Bottling Note
Another bottling from the highly-collectable Game of Thrones-themed series, this single malt Scotch whisky from Highland producer Oban is paired with the hardcore military order The Night's Watch. They could probably do with some Scotch in The Night's Watch, as it's pretty darn cold where they are!
If you haven't seen the show, essentially The Night's Watch hold and guard the Wall, an immense ice structure which separates the northern border of the Seven Kingdoms from the lands beyond. If you're not very familiar with Oban, it's a whisky producer in the Highlands that sits on the edge of Scotland’s western coast that's known for its clean and intensely fruity Scotch. In our opinion, both provide equally important services. One protects the realm from raiders and worse (no spoilers, people), while the other makes very tasty whisky for us to drink. See - equally important.
Tasting Note by The Producer
The initial sip confirms the richness with a wave of heavy, luxurious notes of Morello cherry pie and candied orange peel that burst open on the palate. Long and rich as it drifts into wonderful crème caramel and a gentle wisp of charred oak.
