Ballantines bottle this Scotch Whisky with no age statement. The bottling strength of this whisky is 40% which is at the lower end of the scale for whiskies.

Ballantines 12 Year Old

Like this a good deal. I am a big fan of the Ballantine's Finest, and this is just a notch or two up from that, mainly because of the extra age and the additional smoothness.

Ballantines Finest

I taste Ballantines Finet 4 years ago and I don't remember very well the flavour of this blend. Like the Glen grant (but it's a single malt) it's not a wonderful whisky. It's appropriate like digestive after dinner or like correction with ice cream, or with cocktail. I'll taste the older version before to make a several review to this brand.
