Ballantine’s 17 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky is a prestigious and multi-award-winning Scotch, known for its exceptional balance and complexity. First created in the 1930s, this blend brings together some of Scotland’s finest malt and grain whiskies, each aged for a minimum of 17 years. Over time, this expression has become one of the most respected blends in the Ballantine’s range, even earning the title of World Whisky of the Year by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible in 2011.
Aged in American oak barrels, Ballantine’s 17 develops a rich, smooth character with layers of flavor. On the nose, the whisky opens with aromas of vanilla, oak, and a subtle touch of smoke, giving way to delicate hints of tropical fruits like pineapple and banana. On the palate, it’s elegantly sweet, showcasing notes of creamy vanilla, honey, and spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. A hint of oak and a touch of liquorice bring a pleasant depth, while the whisky finishes long and smooth, with lingering caramel and a whisper of smoke.
This whisky is renowned for its silky texture and well-rounded profile, making it a luxurious choice for those seeking a refined and layered Scotch. Whether sipped neat, on the rocks, or in a classic whisky cocktail, Ballantine’s 17 provides a versatile and satisfying experience.
