Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch #5
About this whisky
- Region:
Hailing from the Speyside region near Dufftown, Balvenie distillery crafts a distinctive spirit, subtly sweeter and honeyed with a delicate touch of peat compared to its neighbor, Glenfiddich. Tun 1509 Batch #5 represents a particularly luxurious expression, matured in a colossal vat combining the influence of 35 American oak barrels and seven sherry-seasoned European oak casks. The resulting whisky presents a complex tapestry of flavors—expect notes of rich caramel, toasted oak, and dried fruit, balanced by a warm spice and lingering sweetness. Bottled at 52.6% ABV, this is a truly exceptional single malt embodying the innovation and heritage of Balvenie.
