Description
Samaroli at 50% ABV from Allt-A-Bhainne Distillery’ – HELL YES!!
This rare little classic was distilled in 2009, matured in a refill bourbon hogshead and then bottled in 2023. It’s a tour de force of refill-bourbon cask matured whisky, resulting in our tasting notes full of brown sugar, bush honey, jersey caramels, sweet popcorn, baked bread and cereal notes.

About Allt-a-Bhainne Distillery:
Scotland’s war horse!
The Allt-A-Bhainne distillery was founded in Speyside in 1975 due to the then booming Scotch Whisky industry calling for more spirit to be made. The distillery was built to supply bulk whisky to the Chivas blended Scotch whiskies with the distillery offering a modern open plan unit, one of the first designed to be run by one man per shift. The spirit stills have long slender necks with boil balls adding reflux and designed to produce a light, estery malt.

Rarely seen bottled as a single malt, independent bottlings are far and few between and one of the only ways to get your hands on their precious whiskies.
