Production:

  1. Malt Selection: The master blender selects malts from three iconic Speyside distilleries, ensuring that each component contributes its unique character to the final blend.

  2. Mashing and Fermentation: The selected malts are mashed, fermented, and distilled separately using traditional copper pot stills, preserving their individual flavors and qualities.

  3. Marriage and Aging: After distillation, the single malts are married together and aged in first-fill bourbon casks. This maturation process allows the flavors to harmonize, resulting in a well-balanced and exceptionally smooth whisky.

Tasting Notes: Monkey Shoulder Batch 27 offers a delightful and approachable flavor profile:

  • Appearance: The whisky displays a warm, golden hue, indicative of its careful maturation in oak casks.

  • Aroma: On the nose, you'll encounter notes of honey, toffee, and a gentle maltiness. There are hints of baking spices, vanilla, and a subtle floral undertone.

  • Palate: The palate is velvety and rich, with flavors of creamy butterscotch, malted barley, and ripe bananas. A touch of citrus zest provides a refreshing contrast, while oak spices add depth and complexity.

  • Finish: The finish is medium in length and leaves a pleasant, sweet, and slightly spicy aftertaste. It's a well-rounded and easy-drinking whisky that invites another sip.

Packaging: Monkey Shoulder Batch 27 Scotch Whisky is typically presented in an eye-catching bottle with a playful, monkey-themed label. The design reflects the whisky's fun and approachable character.
