The Ballantine’s line up of blends is one of the most comprehensive consisting of Finest, 12, 17, 21 and 30-year-old expressions. Each one follows on from the one before being instantly recognisable as ballantine’s. The key characteristics are elegance, sweetness, softness and balance. Finest is soft, sweet and comparatively light in character, lively, but with a satisfying element of complexity, offering apple, vanilla and a floral finish.
