Tasting Notes
These notes summarize Samaroli's description of the 2022 edition, with supporting detail from Japanese retailer Chagata Park; they are not an independent tasting.
- Nose: Dried fig, dates, honey and candied apricot, with saffron and a suggestion of lavender.
- Palate: Rich fruit and caramel associations balanced by expressive spice.
- Finish: Samaroli describes a lively, persistent impression rather than giving a separate finish note.
A Third Edition Inspired by Rome
Samaroli connects SPQR's identity with imperial Rome. Its purple-and-gold label carries a shield-like emblem, while the blend brings together two island origins. The bottler recommends trying it neat first, then exploring it in mixed drinks. Browse our Samaroli collection for more independent bottlings or compare styles in our rum collection.
