Description

A historic Scottish blending company that is best-known for its Ballantine's blended Scotch brand. Founded in 1827, it was acquired by Hiram Walker-Gooderham & Worts in 1935 and is today a non-trading subsidiary of the Pernod Ricard group. Ballantine's Finest is a blended Scotch whisky crafted from a selection of over 50 single malts and four single grain whiskies, with a particular emphasis on malts from Miltonduff and Glenburgie distilleries. This blend offers a smooth and balanced flavor profile, featuring subtle, sweet notes of milk chocolate, red apple, and vanilla.

Nose
Soft, elegant, heather honey aromas with a hint of spice, fruity aromas of apples and pears, accompanied by a light vanilla note and a hint of oak.
Palate
Well balanced subtle flavours with tones of milk chocolate, red apple and vanilla, smooth and balanced with a mixture of malt, fresh fruit and a subtle smokiness, honeyed malt, soft fruit, and a touch of vanilla, creamy mouthfeel.
Finish
Fresh, floral aftertaste that leaves a rounded glow, medium-long and mild with a pleasant aftertaste of sweet caramel and a light oak spice, smooth, clean finish with lingering notes of vanilla, malt, and a light touch of spice.
