Description

Monkey Shoulder is a blended malt Scotch whisky, crafted by William Grant & Sons from three Speyside single malts: Glenfiddich, Balvenie, and Kininvie. It is known for its smooth, approachable, and versatile profile, making it suitable for sipping neat or in cocktails. The name 'Monkey Shoulder' pays homage to a historical repetitive strain injury once suffered by maltmen who manually turned barley during the malting process. This particular offering is a twin bundle that includes a free highball glass.
