The best of the mass market whiskeys fit in this category, as do the bulk of the premium brands. A B- is three stars. Ballantine’s 17 is a creamy and sweet blend with light hints of smoke. Lowering it to a 40% ABV makes it smoother, easier to drink. Keeping the 43% would have make it stronger and with more character (and I’ve probably would have liked it more). Even though, it goes smoothly and leaves a nice memory on the palate. One of those classic blends that easily transport you to another era.

Strong distribution and the popularity of Scotch whisky in the mid-1980s were key influencers in growth. Ballantine's was named the number one brand in Europe and the third largest in the world in 1986 with the oldest product Ballantine's Finest. In Korea, Ballantine's is the clear number one in the super-premium category with its ever-popular Ballantine's 17 in addition to 21 and 30. In 1988, the Company became part of the global beverage conglomerate Allied Domecq. Ballantine’s stands as the second best-selling scotch blend, right after Johnnie Walker. And it is still there because they are using the recipe for Ballantine’s Finest that started all more than a century ago (or so brand says). They offers a range of age statement whiskies, that go from the a 12 year old to 21 years old. Between them sits this 17, which arouses some interest among Jim Murray’s fans, because he selected it in 2011 as his best whisky in the world. When making a blended whiskey, a 'fingerprint malt' is the underlying single malt whisky used as its flavour base.The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein.
