Description from the seller

Ballantine’s 12 Years Old – Very Old Scotch Whisky – 2 Litres – 43% – 1970s

Vintage bottle of Ballantine’s 12 Years Old Very Old Scotch Whisky, produced by George Ballantine & Son Limited, Dumbarton, Scotland.

Rare large-format 2 litre / 200 cl bottle, bottled at 43% ABV, featuring the characteristic moulded glass handle and original built-in pourer.

The bottle was imported into Italy by Spirit S.p.A., Genova and still retains its original Italian tax seal over the closure.

The bottle remains unopened and the fill level is very good considering its age. The original screw cap, neck label and fiscal seal are still present. The paper seal and labels show normal signs of ageing and storage, as clearly visible in the photographs.

The front label carries the historic Ballantine’s Royal Warrant inscription:

“By Appointment to the late Queen Victoria – King Edward VII.”

Details:

* Distillery/Brand: Ballantine’s
* Expression: 12 Years Old – Very Old Scotch Whisky
* Producer: George Ballantine & Son Limited
* Country: Scotland
* Bottling period: approximately 1970s
* Volume: 200 cl / 2 litres
* Alcohol: 43% vol.
* Original built-in pourer
* Original Italian tax seal
* Original closure intact
* Very good fill level
* Large vintage bottle with moulded glass handle
* No original box

A particularly attractive vintage Ballantine’s bottling, especially interesting due to its rare 2-litre format, 12-year age statement and surviving Italian fiscal seal.

Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description and condition report.
