Description

An iconic bottling from Italian specialist Silvano Samaroli, this is a 24-year-old Islay single malt Scotch whisky from the Bowmore Distillery. Distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2021, it was matured in a single sherry butt (Cask #54) and yielded just 532 individually numbered bottles. Samaroli's meticulous cask selection enhances Bowmore's signature coastal smokiness with the deep richness of sherry maturation, resulting in a refined dram that balances maritime power with delicate finesse.

Maltiply Tasting Profile
Nose
Elegant, fragrant nose. Rich in tones of white chocolate and powder that contrast with hints of stove charcoal and toasted wood. Mild peaty aromas.
Palate
Elegant, round and disarming. The peatiness continues, alongside a sherried character. Floral with fruit and delicate peat.
Finish
Long and succulent. More elegant fruit with a background of Islay peat. Soft red fruit lingers. Opulent & velvety.
