Ballantine's 12 Year Old

Ballantine’s twelve-year-old blend, richer and more honeyed than the entry versions. It blends malt and grain whiskies at least twelve years old and stands out for its sweetness of honey and vanilla, with ripe fruit and a floral touch. It is smooth, balanced and without noticeable smoke, so it is enjoyed neat or with a little ice. An option with good value for its age for those after a friendly blend.

Nose

Honey, vanilla and baked apple, with floral notes, some oak and a creamy background.

Palate

Smooth and honeyed. Honey, toffee and ripe fruit, with a hint of spice and cereal.

Finish

Medium, sweet and rounded, with a light hint of oak and vanilla.
