Tasting Notes

Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Ballantine’s 17

Country: Scotland

Region:

Type: Blended Scotch

Bottler: Chivas Brothers

ABV: 43%

Score: 94 Points

The nose has soft spices, brine, and a hint of smoke with fresh berries for balance. The taste is complex, smooth, and luscious with traces of malt, berries, dark chocolate, vanilla, and a slight hint of smoke. The finish is nectar-thick and syrupy with a great blend of spice and smoky notes. Well worth your attention!
