Longrow 1973 Samaroli / Fragments of Scotland

Distilled in 1973, the first year that heavily peated Longrow spirit was distilled at Springbank. Bottled by R.W. Duthie for Samaroli as part of the the Fragments of Scotland series.

Samaroli is perhaps Italy's most revered independent bottler of Scotch whisky. With an impeccable taste in single cask whiskies, and an eye for aesthetics (if not English spelling at times!), he is regarded by many as a visionary. Many of his bottles now occupy deserved sports on the pantheon of whisky greats.

The Fragments of Scotland series was bottled in 1988, and each of them feature artworks depicting different elements of Scotland, many of which were painted by Samaroli's friend, Agostino Perrnini. This one features an artowrk from Cesare Fernicola.

One of 648.
