Monkey Shoulder Smokey Whisky

Monkey Shoulder Smokey Monkey is a distinctive blended malt Scotch whisky that introduces a subtle, warming peated character to the brand’s famously smooth and approachable profile. This expression masterfully combines malt whiskies from Speyside, known for their creamy, fruity nature, with a small percentage of peated malt. The result is a beautifully balanced dram that offers more depth than the original, without overwhelming the palate. On the nose, expect rich vanilla and brown sugar, followed by a gentle thread of woodsmoke and cloves. The palate delivers a soft, toasted-oak spice, honeyed sweetness, and a lingering, sophisticated hint of smoke. Bottled at 40% ABV, it maintains the versatility of Monkey Shoulder while offering a satisfyingly smoky twist, making it excellent for sipping neat or as a foundation for complex cocktails.
