 The history of Ballantine’s Scotch
Whisky can be traced back to the year
1827, when a 18 year old farmer’s son George Ballantine
set up a small grocery store in
Edinburgh. From there he began to supply
a select range of whiskies to a
distinguished clientele.
In 1865
George delegated the running of the
Edinburgh store to his eldest son,
Archibald, while he opened a larger
establishment in Glasgow. Here he
concentrated on the wine and spirit
trade, catering for discerning clients
including the British Royal Family. He
also began to create and perfect his own
blends.
Today Ballantine's Finest is
the 10th largest spirit brand in the
world. It has been distilled and crafted in Scotland
for well over a one hundred years, the
Ballantine's family of whiskies has a brand to
suit everyone from the casual drinker to
the whisky
connoisseur.
