The Balvenie Tun 1401 Batch 2 Single Malt Scotch
Experience a historic milestone in Speyside whisky creation with The Balvenie Tun 1401 Batch 2 Single Malt Scotch Whisky. Crafted by legendary Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE, the Tun 1401 series is celebrated worldwide as one of the most remarkable experiments in marrying rare, aged single malts.
Available now at World of Whiskey Shop, Batch 2 brings together ten hand-selected casks—combining vintage ex-bourbon barrels and European oak Oloroso sherry butts dating from the late 1960s through the late 1980s. These rare liquids were allowed to rest and marry together for three months in the distillery’s famous traditional oak marrying vessel, Tun 1401. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 50.6% ABV without chill-filtration, this rare expression offers an extraordinary harmony of rich sherry sweetness and delicate bourbon oak.
The nose opens with luscious layers of thick acacia honey, tropical fruits, vanilla bean, marzipan, and delicate cinnamon spice, accompanied by whispers of vintage leather and dates. On the palate, a silky, full-bodied texture unfolds with notes of golden syrup, nectarine, dark chocolate, roasted walnut, and orchard fruits. The finish is exceptionally long and luxurious, leaving a lasting impression of sweet oak, warming spices, and caramelized orange zest.
A iconic holy grail for Scotch collectors and discerning whisky connoisseurs, order this rare bottling today from World of Whiskey Shop.
