Samaroli Whisky
Samaroli Apprentice Blended Malt (2023 Edition)
This time, renowned independent bottler Samaroli proudly presents the Apprentice Blended Whisky. This exclusive Scotch whisky is made from a carefully selected blend of young Campbeltown whiskies, which together offer a surprisingly full-bodied flavor profile.
In 1469, a young man began learning in Verrocchio's workshop, highlighting the importance of the teacher-pupil relationship. Today, such relationships are essential to unlocking potential in an information-rich world. Inspired by this dynamic, we launched the Apprentice project in Campbeltown to provide educational opportunities for young talent through Apprentice blended whisky, characterized by rich flavours and patient maturation. The story illustrates the transformative power of these relationships, such as Verrocchio, who gave up painting after recognizing the talent of his apprentice Leonardo da Vinci. TASTING NOTESSamaroli Architectus Blended Malt (2023 Edition)
Ten labels would not be sufficient. Protagoras, Socrates, Anaxagoras, and all the great figures of ancient Greece were orchestrated by Pericles, the city's architect par excellence. They created the perfect polis that inspired love from every corner of the known world, although it also provoked hate from some. May Zeus grant me the opportunity to take vengeance upon the Athenians! With these words, Darius ordered one of his servants to repeat the phrase "Master, remember Athens" three times during each banquet.
Here we present a blend of single malt and grain whiskies aged in sherry oak casks, originating from various city-states of Scotland and their distilleries.
We have chosen the title "Architectus" to provoke those who dare to taste this blend, marked by impertinence and hubris. It is agile, simple, and clear, crafted by carefully selecting the finest elements.
Who knows how long it will take for such a remarkable alignment of eminent humans to occur again? It seems that even two thousand years have not been enough. TASTING NOTESSamaroli 1989 Macallan Magnifico 32 Year Old Cask #6690 (2022 Edition)

- Palate: Sweet in the mouth, as succulent as cherries in May.

Nose: The nosing immediately awakens a fan of long-dozing sulphurousnotes which are unleashed as the whisky conquers the sides of our glass.
