Game of Thrones – Oban The Night’s Watch
Brand: Oban | Category: Single Malt Scotch | ABV: 43% | Origin: Highlands, Scotland | Vol: 70cl

Intro/Heritage:
Sworn to the shadows, Oban’s Night’s Watch edition stands as a sentinel in the Game of Thrones whisky series. Bottled in solemn black, this Highland single malt pays tribute to the men of the Wall, resilient, disciplined, and quietly powerful. From the edge of Westeros to the misty shores of Oban, this bottle captures the strength of isolation and the courage it takes to face the unknown.

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Like standing on a cold stone rampart, salty sea air, malted barley, and dark cherry compote. Hints of burnt toffee and a waft of fire-charred oak.
Palate: Silky yet firm. Caramel and spiced orange peel glide across the tongue, grounded by a subtle mineral edge and whispers of black tea.
Finish: Dry, lingering, and quietly intense. Oak and pepper taper into the stillness, like fading footsteps in snow.

Production Details:
Crafted at the Oban Distillery, one of Scotland’s smallest and most atmospheric coastal distilleries, this release was aged in refill bourbon casks to preserve Oban’s signature balance of maritime salt and Highland sweetness. Bottled at 43%, it's polished yet assertive, just like the brotherhood it honors.

Perfect For:
For nights that feel longer than they should. Ideal by candlelight, with a heavy book or heavier thoughts. Best enjoyed when the room is still and the mood is brooding, think leather, silence, and the weight of legacy.

Expert Notes:
Part of the acclaimed Game of Thrones limited edition whisky collection, the Oban Night’s Watch release quickly became a collector’s favorite, not just for its dramatic styling, but for the whisky itself. It's a lesson in elegance under pressure: restrained, nuanced, and layered with quiet power.

Customer Reviews:
🗨️ “Didn’t expect a TV tie-in to be this good. Oban knows what they’re doing.”
🗨️ “Smooth, smoky, and serious. Like a dram brewed in Castle Black.”
🗨️ “It’s not a gimmick — it’s a solid Highland whisky with armor.”

Interesting Fact:
Oban Distillery is nestled between sea cliffs and a bustling port town, and has been in operation since 1794. It’s one of the few distilleries that bridges the flavor gap between smoky island malts and the fruitier Highland style, a true geographical and stylistic gateway.

Serving Suggestions:
Sip neat for full effect. A dash of cool water will awaken dried fruits and bring forward a faint sea breeze. Skip the garnish, this dram carries its own weight.

Distillery Background:
With just two pot stills and a deeply traditional approach, Oban Distillery is revered for crafting whisky that feels as timeless as its granite walls. It’s not just a stop on the whisky trail, it’s a rite of passage for lovers of complex coastal malts.
