Samaroli Rum 2004

Samaroli is a historic Italian bottler with a purist reputation, known for elegant, balanced single casks at deliberately reduced proof. This Panamanian is a twelve year old from a 2004 vintage, aged in ex-bourbon oak and bottled unsweetened at 45%.

Panamanian ron is soft and vanilla led, distilled from molasses on a column still in the Spanish style. Continentally aged and presented without dosage, the Samaroli approach typically lets a delicate, woody sweetness and light dried fruit come through cleanly rather than masked by sugar. Expect a refined, gentle Panamanian, a classic easy sipper in the regional mould but framed with the restraint and balance that define this bottler's house style.
