Description
Ballantine's 10 American Barrel offers a high quality option in the premium whisky segment, fusing the best of two worlds: Scotch whisky and American style.
The distillery's latest creation, Ballantine's 10 American Barrel, has been aged for 10 years and finished in bourbon casks, combining the depth of Scotch whisky with the characteristic sweetness of bourbon. This results in a whisky with the classic Ballantine's character, but with an added hint of apple and caramel, courtesy of the bourbon casks.
