Description
A vintage Ballantine's finest blended scotch whisky, this was bottled by master blenders George Ballantine & Son Ltd.
There will be many opinions referring to the time period of Whisky Production in Scotland that could be referred to as "The Golden Age of Whisky." There is a time however that without doubt was special and considered by many that period.
The whisky made early 60s-70s with direct firing of stills, the abundant use of Golden Promise Barley, a slower more deliberated approach to production and even a more generous portion of malts in blends of the period ,all lead to a treasure of never again to be repeated whiskies.
We refer to this as the "The Golden Era of whisky." Ballantines Finest is a no age statement blend, a classic blend indeed. Smooth, satisfyingly modern blend, now picking up serious momentum in overseas markets under owners Chivas Brothers.
Please note as this is a vintage bottle, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary - Some years can vary as estimations only (example: estimated 1970s/80s).
