Ballantine’s Brasil is a distinctive spirit drink that harmoniously blends the time-honoured tradition of Scotch whisky with the lively zest of Brazilian lime. This innovative fusion results in a 35% ABV beverage that offers both the smoothness of Scotch and the invigorating citrus notes of lime. Crafted by selectively cask steeping Scotch whisky with dried Brazilian lime peel, Ballantine’s Brasil delivers a refreshing twist on a classic spirit.
