The name Monkey Shoulder comes from the malt men who are among the few still to turn the malting barley by hand using a shiel, a special wooden shovel.And Monkey Shoulder was the nickname given to a temporary injury their predecessors suffered many years ago.Luckily for the new fellows, working practices have now changed so the condition no longer exists.The name is inspired by and, in honour of, their passion.
Crafted in small batches of just 27 casks, Monkey Shoulder is guaranteed to have a consistent smooth and rounded taste.
The bottle features a triplet of monkeys.The three brass monkeys represent the three single malt producing distilleries whose product is blended together to create the triple malt that is Monkey Shoulder.
