Balvenie Tun 1401 Batch 7 is a limited-release single malt Scotch whisky from the Balvenie Distillery in Speyside. This expression is a marriage of 11 traditional whisky casks and nine sherry butts selected by Malt Master David Stewart from the distillery`s oldest stocks. It has an aromatic nose of runny honey, orange peel and toasted oak. The palate is viscous and delivers intense flavours of golden syrup, cinnamon, dried apricots and baked apples. This liquid matured in a single large oak tun for several months, which creates a chiselled profile with a long finish of sweet spice and oak tannins.

Crafted with Care
One of Speyside's most famous single malts, located in Dufftown and owned by William Grant and Sons. The distillery was founded in the late 1800s by William Grant, who worked at the Mortlach distillery nearby. Master Distiller David Stewart is credited with making Balvenie the powerhouse we know today.
David worked at Balvenie for many decades and introduced many innovations that are now widespread across the industry including 'cask finishes' where whiskies are aged for a period in ex-Bourbon wood before being finished for a relative short period in a more active barrel.
