The Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch #8 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Balvenie is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Dufftown, Scotland, owned by William Grant & Sons. Balvenie started producing whisky in May 1893, fifteen months after William Grant started converting an 18th-century mansion, the Balvenie New House, into a distillery. Grant, who got his first job as a cattle herder at the age of seven, worked his way up from a bookkeeper to manager at the Mortlach distillery, where he stayed for twenty years, learning the distilling trade. Grant remained with the Balvenie company until his death in 1923 at the age of 83. In the same year, his son, John, began the first expansion of the distillery. In 1929, the original maltings were replaced with the traditional malting floor still used today.

Tasting Notes

The nose is rich and sweet with lemon tart, orange jam, and maple syrup. On the sweet palate, you'll find toffee, vanilla, honey, and oak, slowly giving way to ginger, cardamom, and spice that linger on the finish.
