A classic blend.Two centuries, five Master Blenders, and one uncompromising standard of excellence – that’s Ballantine’s story, and till this very day, they stick to it. Ballantine’s history can be traced back to 1827 when the founder, George Ballantine, first opened his store in Edinburgh. Since then, they’ve travelled the globe and are now the No.1 blended Scotch whisky in Europe and No.2 worldwide.
Ballantine’s Finest’s tasting notes present balanced subtle, sweet flavours like milk chocolate, red apple, and vanilla. On the nose, the light gold whisky is soft, elegant, heather honey aromas with a hint of spice with a fresh and floral after-taste that creates a rounded glow.
Ballantine’s Finest is best served with anything, or nothing. Make the usual or the unusual. Good taste comes to those who know what they like. If it works for you, it works – after all, there’s no wrong way.
