Balvenie Tun 1401 Batch #5 with Keyring
Lot number: 064-2753
Winning bid: £520
We're indebted to our friends at the caskstrength blog.
After a brace of other batches destined for the US and travel retail, the legendary tun has been back in action with Batch 5.
The bigger batch size represents the popularity of this whisky (2862 bottles) and this time around the marriage has been bought together from nine casks: four sherry butts and five American oak hoggies.
The youngest whisky in this batch is apparently 21 years old and the oldest from 1966, with the majority of the sherried whisky coming from the 1970s.
50.1%ABV / 70cl
Comes with branded keyring
