Monkey Shoulder uses only malt Scotch whisky from three of Speyside's finest distilleries. This triple malt makes it ideal for mixing as well as drinking in the more traditional way. Monkey Shoulder is inspired by and named in honour of the malt men at William Grant, who are among the few still to turn the malting barley by hand using a sheil (wooden shovel). Monkey Shoulder was a nickname that was given to a temporary injury some malt men occasionaly suffered many years ago as a result of repeatedly bending over whilst turning the malt. Crafted in small batches of just 27 casks, Monkey Shoulder's smooth and rounded taste has accents of malty sweetness, vanilla, marmalade and barley sugar. This whisky has a distinctive design on the bottle's shoulder showing three brass monkeys, each representing one of the constituent single malts.
