Samaroli Yehmon Vintage Blended Rum (2023)

Samaroli Yehmon Vintage Blended Rum is a blend of several distilleries from the historic Italian bottler Samaroli, a house long associated with elegant, balanced selections at deliberately reduced proof. Bottled at 45% in their unsweetened, continental tradition, it leans toward the fresh, fragrant side of rum rather than the heavy molasses end.

The nose is bright and inviting, grass and citrus meeting a light confectionery sweetness. The palate turns fresh and cane driven, sugarcane, floral and flowery notes carried by a vegetal freshness that keeps it lively and clean. In keeping with the Samaroli style, the emphasis is on poise and balance rather than power or sweetness, the spirit allowed to show its own character without heavy oak or dosage. It is a refined, easygoing blend for those who appreciate a lighter, dry and well composed rum from one of the category's most respected names.
