In Popular Culture
According to "Soap's Journal", an item included in the collector's edition of the popular video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, the 14-year-old Oban bottling was a favorite of John Price, one of the game's primary protagonists.
It is also apparently a favorite of the fictional character Charlie Skinner, of Aaron Sorkin's 2012 show "The Newsroom". A bottle is seen being shared during a triumphant moment at the end of the pilot episode.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“The best of us would rather be popular than right.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Why is it so difficult to see the lesbian—even when she is there, quite plainly, in front of us? In part because she has been “ghosted”Mor made to seem invisible—by culture itself.... Once the lesbian has been defined as ghostly—the better to drain her of any sensual or moral authority—she can then be exorcised.”
—Terry Castle, U.S. lesbian author. The Apparitional Lesbian, ch. 1 (1993)
