This is a vintage that Samaroli has released in large quantities. The aroma features fresh citrus like lemon, cheese, and a clear sense of tarry peat, along with the characteristic wild animal-like nuances of Longrow.

There are rumors that Samaroli filled many bottles and released those they didn't like, and this bottle seems to be one of them, with very similar nuances.
