Ballantine's 17 Year Old is a blend favoured by many. It's vibrant, well-balanced, and properly packed with honey, apples, and biscuits, plus a hint of smoke.
Feinty. Smoke and a touch of mochaccino. There are some notes of leather and Madeira with a little chocolate.
Balanced. There are notes of cut herbs and a defined vegetal character. Fresh citrus and fudge. Touch of peat smoke.
Fruit, becomes dry.
This whisky proves that age statement means nothing. Even cheap NAS blends taste better. Good for mixing only. Should be avoided.
Having drank this overrated whisky I can not recommend it.even the old ballantines finest beats this.the metal cap.not the plastic cap.all the smoke has gone from the new ones.a bottle of ballantines used to mean something.
I reviewed this a while ago. Have bought 3 bottles and loved them. Bought a bottle tonight. It's harsh, thin and grainy. I cannot tell you how much I despise the thugs who are deliberately ruining the most respected industry on Earth. You will all rot in hell!!
Nose: not much to it, slight citrus, spice and a hint of mocca. Palate: oaky, medium smoke, quite sharp on the alcohol, very distant hint of peat. Finish: Dry, oaky, quite smoky, earthy/grassy hint. Overall really boring and thin. Not much to it.
If I could give it less than 1 star I would. Horrible stuff will never drink another ballantines again
