A single cask from the Diamond distillery bottled by the historic Italian purist house Samaroli, a 2004 vintage aged twenty years in ex-bourbon, expected to show deep molasses, dark fruit and oak.
Description
Samaroli, the historic Italian bottler known for elegant, balanced single casks, selected this Diamond Demerara from a 2004 vintage, aged twenty years in ex-bourbon and bottled at 51%. Samaroli works in the unsweetened, continental-aged tradition and favours poise over brute strength.
With no specific still marque listed, the safe reading is a deeply aged Guyanese molasses rum, with twenty years in ex-bourbon expected to bring rich vanilla, caramel, dark dried fruit and integrated oak in the house style. The 51% strength keeps real weight while staying composed rather than fierce, in keeping with the bottler's elegant approach. A long-aged, dry, single-cask Demerara from one of Italy's most respected purist houses.
