Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt

Description

Made for Mixing. Monkey Shoulder is a free-spirited Scotch that breaks all the rules. Crafted in small batches of just 27 casks, it is a marriage of three legendary Speyside single malts. Matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks, it delivers a smooth, malty, and vanilla-forward profile that is bold enough to stand out in a cocktail but refined enough to be enjoyed neat. The iconic bottle features three brass monkeys on the shoulder, representing the three malts that make up this award-winning blend.

• ⚡ The 100% Malt Guarantee: Unlike standard “Blended Scotch,” Monkey Shoulder contains zero grain whisky—only pure single malts.

• 🍯 Flavor Profile: Rich vanilla, zesty orange, and mellow honey with a hint of spicy oak.

• 🍹 Best Used For: The “Lazy Old Fashioned” or a “Monkey Mule” with ginger beer and lime.

• 🌍 Origin: Dufftown, Speyside, Scotland.

• 🏷️ ABV: 40%
