Description

Ballantine's Finest Scotch Whisky is a well-established blended Scotch whisky from a historic Scottish blending company founded in 1827. It is produced by Chivas Brothers (a Pernod Ricard subsidiary) in Dumbarton, Scotland. The blend combines over 50 single malt whiskies and 4 grain whiskies from all four whisky regions of Scotland, including 'fingerprint malts' from Miltonduff and Glenburgie. The recipe has remained true to its original since 1910, offering a consistent, smooth, and approachable profile. The whiskies are aged for many years in high-quality casks, primarily American oak (ex-bourbon) and European (ex-sherry) casks.
