Monkey Shoulder

Rooted in malt whisky lore, the name Monkey Shoulder referred to a temporary injury suffered by the malt-men when turning the barley by hand. As working practices have since changed, the injury no longer exists and now, the name Monkey Shoulder lives on as an affectionate tribute to the malt-men of yore in recognition of the times they suffered for their art. A blended malt, Monkey Shoulder is smooth and rich on its own. However,it is also ideal for cocktails.
