Monkey Shoulder is a premium blended malt Scotch whisky that combines the craftsmanship of three renowned Speyside distilleries. It is known for its exceptional quality and unique character, making it a favorite among whisky enthusiasts.

The name “Monkey Shoulder” pays tribute to the traditional method of malt whisky production, where malted barley was turned by hand using a malt shovel. This labor-intensive process was known to cause a temporary ailment called “monkey shoulder.” Today, the name symbolizes the dedication and artistry behind the whisky.

Monkey Shoulder is made from a blend of single malts from three Speyside distilleries: Glenfiddich, Balvenie, and Kininvie. These whiskies are carefully selected and expertly blended to create a harmonious and flavorful expression.

On the nose, Monkey Shoulder offers a delightful aroma of rich vanilla, toffee, and hints of citrus zest. The palate reveals a smooth and creamy texture with flavors of honey, oak, and a touch of spice. The whisky is well-balanced, with a gentle sweetness and a subtle maltiness that lingers on the finish.

Monkey Shoulder is crafted with exceptional care and attention to detail. It is matured in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, which impart a warm and mellow character to the whisky. The use of malt whiskies, rather than grain whiskies, gives it a distinct depth and complexity.

Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in classic whisky cocktails, Monkey Shoulder is a versatile and flavorful whisky that appeals to both whisky connoisseurs and those new to the category. Its smoothness, rich flavors, and well-rounded character make it a go-to choice for those seeking a high-quality blended malt Scotch whisky.
