An old bottling of this classic blended Scotch whisky, thoroughly indulgent and fabulously delicious. A high proportion of the whiskies in the recipe have been matured in European oak casks, giving a nutty, dried fruit influence. Ballantine’s is renowned for smoothness, and this expression is an impeccable example.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Lively yet refined, the stone fruit, marmalade and liquorice notes jump from the glass. There’s some aromatic spice in there too, and even a whisper of wood smoke.
Sweeter and more intense on the palate, here honey comes through along with an abundance of apple, juicy orange and rich hedgerow fruits. A macadamia, pecan quality adds depth.
Dried fruits and more of that honey. The suggestion of wood smoke comes back here, too.
Smooth, complex and luxurious. A real treat of a dram.
