About the distillery

The Balvenie distillery is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Dufftown, Scotland, owned by William Grant & Sons.

In early 1892 work began to convert an 18th-century mansion (Balvenie New House) into a distillery.  The building took fifteen months to complete, and on 1 May 1893, the first distillation took place at the Balvenie Distillery.

In 2007, The Balvenie's Global Brand Ambassador, David Mair presented an online documentary series about the making of malt whisky, shot in and around the Balvenie Distillery.

Pronunciation : "bal-vaynee"

Other Information

Batch #8 of TUN 1401 from Balvenie has been created using a selection of 9 American Oak casks and 3 European Oak Sherry casks, hand selected by Malt Master David Stewart.  These whiskies were married in TUN 1401 for several months before bottling.

This is a rare interpretation of the marrying process and allows all casks to come together to create a unique expression of The Balvenie that’s greater than the sum of its constituent parts.  This particular whisky was limited to 2,700 bottles.

The packaging presents a list of the 12 casks that were married together in the making of TUN 1401 Batch 8.

Please ensure that you undertake close up viewing/inspection prior to placing any bid.  If you are not satisfied with the photos, or if you have questions beyond the offered description and images, please click "ask a question" to make specific enquiries or to receive a more in-depth condition report.  Lots will be sold as seen and described.  

 

Insurance against breakage or loss during transit is available at checkout at a cost of 3.5% of the hammer price.

 

Due to the various ages of bottles and their seals, condition of liquid is at the buyer's discretion and no claim can be lodged against leakage in transit.
