Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch #1

Crafted at the heart of Speyside in Dufftown by the Grant family, Balvenie distinguishes itself with a uniquely sweet and honeyed spirit, touched by a delicate whisper of peat. This expression, Tun 1509 Batch #1, is a masterful marriage of 35 American oak barrels and seven European oak sherry butts, allowed to meld together for several months to create a complex character. The result is a rich, full-bodied whisky bottled at 47.1% ABV, showcasing Balvenie’s pioneering approach to maturation and cask finishing. Expect a flavour profile brimming with notes of honey, fruitcake, and subtle spice – a testament to the distillery’s dedication to traditional techniques, including its own on-site maltings.
