Tasting notes
Despite its young age, the mastery of the woods delivers it with a delicately peaty tone. Notes of yeast, butter and smoked meat appear shyly on the nose. A bit like the scents of an extinguished fireplace after the night. Toasted tones of almond, hazelnut and candied fruit. The saline dimension surprises for its balance and harmony.
Samaroli is probably Italy's most renowned independent bottler, considered a visionary by most. Impeccable taste and an eye for aesthetics have given numerous of his bottlings a worthy place in the pantheon of whisky and rum giants.Today the production is under Antonio Bleve's direction, who has collaborated with Samaroli for many years and shares the passion and philosophy of the house.Antonio Bleve continues his quest for exceptional casks, relying on the brand's historical relationships and new interactions, making their latest bottlings increasingly in demand.
