SAMAROLI CAOL ILA 2011 750ML; SPECIAL ORDER, 45% ABV, 90PF, ISLAY SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY; ALLOW 4 WEEKS

SPECIAL ORDER, ALLOW 4 WEEKS Samaroli – 2011 Caol Ila 2018 Edition – Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Aged 7 Years, Bottled in 2018, 334 Bottles, 45% ABV) Craftsmanship and balance This spirit is a member of the Samaroli family first, and a son of Islay second. The first fill ex bourbon cask was deliberately chosen for a whisky that despite its youthful age, goes perfectly with our idea of quality and finishing. We give you a Caol Ila that could be described as a little prince. Delicately peaty. Notes of yeast, butter and smoked meat approach the nose timidly, like aromas wafting from a busy Sunday morning kitchen. On the palate, it’s as succulent as the finest sugared almonds made for the wedding of the century. Toasted tones of almond, hazelnut and candied peel. All rounded off with a saltiness more closely related to capers than to iodine. “Goodbye,” said the fox. “And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye”. “The Little Prince” Antoine de Saint-Exupéry 1943. Bottled in Scotland in 2018. From Selected Cask # 65 (KOV – 1° Fill). Just 334 bottles have been produced. 45% ABV (90 Proof).
