Enter the inner sanctum of Warehouse 24 with The Balvenie Tun 1401 — Batch 8. For this instalment, Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE hand-picked twelve of the distillery’s rarest casks — nine traditional American-oak barrels and three European-oak sherry butts — spanning several decades of maturation. The casks were married together for months in the famed Tun 1401, allowing their contrasting characters to meld into a single, deeply complex single malt. Bottled at a robust 50.2 % ABV, Batch 8 was released world-wide in strictly limited quantities (≈ 2,700 bottles), offering an opulent fusion of Balvenie’s honeyed house style, bourbon-cask vanilla and rich sherried depth.
