Description

The Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 1 is a highly sought-after single malt Scotch whisky that marked a new era for the distillery's “Tun” series, succeeding the popular Tun 1401 releases. This first batch, released in 2014, was crafted by marrying 42 hand-selected casks—35 American oak barrels and 7 European oak Sherry butts—for several months in Tun 1509, a large marrying vat.
