The story
Ballantine's began as George Ballantine's business in 1827 in Edinburgh and quickly developed into trade and maturation of whisky. During the 20th century the brand introduced historic labels like Ballantine's Finest and its aged expressions; it was granted a Royal Warrant in 1895. Today production and blending are managed by Chivas Brothers and the brand is part of Pernod Ricard, retaining warehouses and bottling facilities in Dumbarton, Scotland.
Distillation
For single malts traditional copper pot stills (wash still and spirit still, double distillation) are used; the blend combines malt and grain distillates produced with the techniques typical of each type, then assembled by the master blender.
Ageing
Maturation in wooden casks (mainly oak) in bonded warehouses; the minimum period for Scotch is 3 years, while Ballantine's maintains stocks aged for decades for some expressions.
