Bruichladdich 2002 - Masam - Samaroli - 54.5% - 15ml / 30ml

Bottled from the private stocks of the legendary Italian independent bottler Silvano Samaroli by his widow Maryse Samaroli. This tastes like a peated Bruichladdich with salty coastal notes, smoked fish and peat notes, so technically these days it might be referred to as a Port Charlotte. This whisky was distilled in 2002 and laid to rest in single cask #92 before being bottled in 2020. One of 177 bottles. This is a proper Horny Pony given the history of the bottler.
