The late Silvano Samaroli is a legend in the world of the whisky.  A simple scroll through the names of the most highly-regarded whiskies of all time will reveal the ubiquity of Samaroli's name in this list.  He is associated closely not only with fantastic quality whiskies, but also his forward thinking and game-changing focus on cask-strength bottlings. A kindred spirit with his contemporaries at W.M. Cadenhead, he believed wholeheartedly in the bottling of cask strength whisky, and Silvano's first releases were a collaborative effort with Scotland's oldest independent bottler. These were released in 1979, and were closely followed by the acclaimed Flowers series in 1981. The Flowers series, bottled with ornate illustrative labels (hand-drawn by Samaroli himself), were a sensation and finally provided Samaroli with the platform and audience he knew his whisky deserved.

The Whisky Auctioneer Team absolutely loves the results of Samaroli's care and attention - the liquids, the labels and his forward thinking.
