Hi everyone!
I found a bottle of this old looking Ballantines Finest Scotch Whisky that is 70% proof and the capsule seal is made of lead (machine rolled).
It is difficult to find any information about it.

Hi Ski, if you can post photos of the label I can give you a good idea of the age

Yes, a photo would be fine!

I search a bottle of old Ballentines right now :cool:...a ceramic one.

I go make a pic myself...

Hi Ski, the bottle's one sold in the UK around the mid 1970's. They only used this label for a few years as the crest was wrongly designed, the flags should be the same colour. I don't know who told you it was 1910 to 1914 but it isn't
