Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch No.6 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

More limited than previous releases, Batch 6 is also one of the most deeply coloured in the series so far, suggesting extra sherry input.

Other reviews... The sixth batch in this highly regarded series comprises whisky aged in five refill sherry butts, seven DoubleWood refill sherry butts, and nine bourbon barrels. The nose is soft and inviting, with honey, pineapple, vanilla, caramel, and ginger. The palate is rounded, rich, and sweet, with honey, vanilla, apples, and pears. Tangy citrus fruit, star anise, and oak in the lengthy finish. 50.4% Alc./Vol.
