How about Ballantinene's Ballantine's Whisky brand introduction

苏格兰whiskey巨头,畅销程度仅次于尊尼获加,当混合whiskey遭遇市场危机时,百龄坛依旧坚挺,自2013年以来,每年销售量都增加近100万箱。回顾百龄坛近百年的历史,1827年与1895年是两个重要的时间节点:1827年,George Ballantine在爱丁堡开了一间销售苏格兰whiskey的杂货店,商业传奇从此开始;1895年,在儿子George Junior Ballantine的经营下,George Ballantine&Son获得了维多利亚女王的皇室认证,奠定了此后闻名国际的基础。
 
Ballantine's core portfolio includes Special, Limited, Hard Fired, 12 Vintage, 17 Vintage, 21 Vintage, 30 Vintage, 40 Vintage and Brasil Whisky Drinks, in addition to Ballantine's 15-year-old single malt whisky from its three original distilleries, Miltonduff, Glenburgie and Glentauchers. Ballantine's official purchase platform in China is Pernod Ricard's Tmall flagship store, which only sells four whiskies: Alcohol, 12-year-old, 15-year-old and 17-year-old.
 
Finest is the cornerstone of Ballantine's and is a blend of malt and grain whiskies from the Highland, Lowland, Speyside and Islay regions, all of which have been barrel-aged for at least 3 years. Despite its name, Finest isn't actually Ballantine's best product, but rather a beginner whisky from the brand, with a sweet and creamy flavor of vanilla, but lacking depth and intolerance, it is recommended for beginners and mixed with other soft drinks by experienced gourmets.
 
Ballantine's 17 Years, the world's first 17 Year Old Scotch whisky. It's worth mentioning that in 2011, Jim Murray, author of The Whisky Bible, named it the best whisky of the year, sparking a mixed discussion among whisky lovers. At this time, Jim Murray's much-praised Ballantine's 17 (17 Years Old) and the 506 yuan Ballantine's 17 (Aged 17 Years) on the Tmall flagship store are not the same, the former has an alcohol content of 43%, and the latter has an alcohol content of 40%, there is a certain flavor gap.
