Balvenie
Tasting Notes
Located in the heart of Speyside, the Balvenie Tun 1401 - Batch 2 is a masterful blend of sherry and bourbon-aged whiskies, a true testament to the expertise of Malt Master David Stewart. The nose unveils a symphony of tropical fruit, coconut, and spice, accompanied by hints of vanilla, marzipan, leather, dates, and a subtle rose petal jelly sweetness. On the palate, oak takes center stage, revealing a rich and fruity character with notes of nectarine, acacia honey, custard, cocoa, walnut, and a touch of apple sauce. The finish lingers, a harmonious blend of honey, spices, and a delightful caramelized orange zest. A true masterpiece, this whisky is a journey through time, showcasing the finest whiskies from the late 1960s to the late 1980s, expertly married in the revered Tun 1401.
