Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 8 Sample

A Perfect Measure sample bottle of the Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 8, a single malt that showcases malt master David Stewart MBE's experience in marrying rare casks and is the final instalment in the prestigious Tun 1509 series. Made with a selection of 18 casks – four ex-bourbon barrels, six second-fill sherry butts, five refill puncheons and three first-fill sherry butts – that have spent three months in a traditional marrying tun. Aromas of freshly-baked lemon tarts, homemade marmalade, maple syrup and sweet marzipan fill the nose, complemented by notes of rich toffee, creamy vanilla, wild honey, toasted oak, crystalised ginger and cinnamon throughout the palate.
