Monkey Shoulder was once made exclusively from a mixture of three well-respected single-malt whiskies: Balvenie, Kininvie, and Glenfiddich. As demand grew, the brand introduced other whiskies into the blend, with three single-malts still comprising the blend for each batch. The blend uses nine casks for each single malt. Hence, the blend is labeled “Batch 27.” Tastes of vanilla and winter spice are well-balanced by notes of butterscotch, toasted barley, and berry fruit Monkey Shoulder is a premium whiskey with a delicate and complex flavor profile.

Malted Barley: The all-natural barley is initially steeped in pristine spring water sourced from a spring in the nearby hills. The grain is then carefully spread across a traditional malting floor (there are only a handful of traditional malting floors left in Scotland). The malt men then turn the barley by hand using shovels and wooden paddles until the malted barley is ready for the kilning process. The kilning process dries the malted barley out using a specific amount of peat and anthracite. This process adds depth and further complexity to these quality whiskeys.Think the pros only drink single-malt? Think again. When it comes to Scotch whisky, bartenders consistently list Monkey Shoulder as a go-to, calling the brand underrated, versatile, and high-quality.

Yeast: William Grant and Sons use liquid yeast, but the exact strain is a closely guarded secret. This yeast is referred to as a Speyside yeast and is utilized in all three Speyside distilleries. What’s in a Name Made with single malts from the company’s three neighbouring Speyside distilleries in Dufftown – Glenfiddich, Balvenie and Kininvie, the blended scotch whisky are first matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks, are vatted together in small batches for up to six months before bottling at 40% abv. Why's it so mellow? Well, for starters, there’s not a single drop of grain whisky in our Monkey Shoulder, and the chosen malts mature in first fill ex-bourbon casks. Our own coopers repair these ex-bourbon casks so that they impart a smooth and mellow vanilla flavour into the resting malt whisky. And then, there's Brian Kinsman our new who's our Master now. He always chooses the right combination of casks for every batch he makes, ensuring each one is deliciously smooth and rich as the last. Kininvie was the third distillery opened by the company in 1990 and produces premium single malt whiskey. Most of the whiskey produced by this distillery is used as a blend to create William Grant and Sons blended whiskeys. The most popular William Grant and Sons blended whiskey are Clan MacGregor. Clan Macgregor is an average blended whiskey with a high percentage of grain whiskey. Additional William Grant and Sons ProductsMonkey Shoulder is a tribute to all the malt men around the world that turn the malted barley by hand. The traditional malt whiskey distillation process involved the malted barley being turned over (mixed) by hand using wooden paddles and shovels. Often, this laborious process would cause injury to the shoulders of these upstanding gentlemen. To find some relief from the pain, they would hang their arms low like monkeys. This injury became known as “Monkey Shoulder” and is the inspiration for this exceptional blend.
