I would describe many incredible and impressive whisky and whiskey have cost in hundred dollars if I would do this before 2018. I made a magnificent collection of these dried bottles, but, loudly sadly, it was mostly destroyed by communists (and that was a grandiose mistake for which I continue to retaliate.). I have only photo of them. However, I believe that time return to aqua vitae of this range at full and coming to drinks in thousand dollars is not a far perspective.
Let’s return to reality. I received Ballantine’s Pure Malt Aged 12 Years, which doesn’t cost it’s little money in twenties to thirties dollars in depends. I’ve got colorant in nose. That taste was in using, which was only. A harsh strong whisky whereas it has no soul. Excuse my neologism here, but it overboiled in cistern though the last word is a big fat compliment, because I felt in quality that whisky was produced in grandpa’s basement, which in some hundred yards away from me. I began to be doubtful on legitimacy. I always check when I see attracted me bottle, but I do it if I buy. Ballantine’s Pure Malt Aged 12 Years isn’t on official site. I asked them on existence. I still didn’t receive answer what probably due to weekend while I made own research and concluded it’s unfortunately was made by Chivas Brothers. More disgusting than Johnnie Walker Island Green. I willn’t touch this bottle again.
Take it as it comes as says Jim Morrison is about me and that was my awakening song today.
