Ballantine’s 40 Year Old Masterclass Collection
A Rich Depth of Flavour. For a Moment of Pure Indulgence.
The Remembering, the first Chapter in the Masterclass Collection, celebrates the sensory memory developed by Master Blenders over years of training – building a library of smells which can identified precisely and consistently whilst nosing hundreds of casks or samples every day.
ABV: 40%
Tasting
Notes
Colour
Deep amber gold.
Nose
Incredibly rich and fruity: bursting with flavours of fresh apricot, caramelised figs, Seville orange marmalade and charred pineapple. This intertwines with cinnamon, ginger spice and sweet, nutty oak.
Taste
On the palate, this whisky is rich and complex: spiced red apples, homemade blackcurrant jam and juicy, dark cherries combine with notes of lavish toffee, dark chocolate, and warming clove spice.
Finish
The finish endures with a slightly dry complexity. Perfectly balanced.
