By playing different music while sampling Ballantine’s we learned that our perception can be altered by the sounds we hear and enhance the way we enjoy and experience scotch whiskies,” shared Haman, who oversees Premium Brands such as Martell, Chivas and Jameson for West Africa at Pernod Ricard, the global spirits distribution company.A Ballantine’s Tasting Experience in Accra
