Ballantine's 12 years old Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Ballantine's

“A honest dram with a light taste and a short finish.”

84
Ballantine's 12 year Blue
Ballantine's is one the most famous blended scotch whiskies in the world.

Ballantine's 12 years old Blue is made with malt whisky from Miltonduff, Balblair, Glenburgie and Old Pulteney between others.

If you enjoy this blended whisky, you should try something like a Glenlivet 12 years old

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (87): strong. peaches, honey, floral, wood, raisins.

Palate (82): light, smooth. honey, peaches, malt, floral, citrus.

Finish (83): average. honey, floral.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Ballantine's 12 year Blue with 84 points over 100.
