After nine batches of their very popular Tun 1401 series, Balvenie decided a bigger marrying tun was needed. Tun 1509 holds four times as much liquid - ample room to marry their whisky together. This is the first batch of Balvenie's Tun 1509 single malt Scotch whisky, which is comprised of seven European oak Sherry butts and thirty-five American oak barrels, allowed to marry together for several months.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Floral honey, apple drops, fresh vanilla and a little bit of thick treacle.
Superb mouthfeel, it's effortlessly mouth-coating with candied orange peels, crumbly shortbread, cinnamon and oak notes.
Raisins, citrus and cracked black pepper.

Fantastic candied orange and cask char throughout. Very very rich and moreish.
