Ballantines Finest Blended Scotch Whisky 70cl - RV Drinks

The oldest recipe in the current Ballantine's range, created back in 1910 by the Ballantine's family, combines more than forty different malts and grains carefully selected from four distinct iconic Scottish regions, a blend the brand considers impossible to improve upon. Soft, elegant heather honey aromas open the nose with a hint of spice, developing into a well-balanced, subtle palate with tones of milk chocolate, red apple and vanilla, closing on a sophisticated aftertaste that delivers a fresh, floral and rounded glow reflecting over a century of unchanged, carefully honed craftsmanship.
