  • Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt

    Blended Malt — Speyside, Scotland

    Reviewed October 27, 2020 (edited October 31, 2020)

    There's a reason this is a classic. The nose is diverse: barley, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon. On the palate, more spices like cloves come in, as well as butterscotch, cream, and more barley. The finish isn't too short either, with a spicy oakiness.

    A nose of sherry, spices, and vanilla. The taste starts with cinnamon, dried fruit, and sherry, finishing off with spices and a hint of smoke. While this bottle wouldn't impress a long-time drinker, it's a highly underrated Speyside that works as an alternative to pricier options while completely standing on its own.

    The nose is of smoke, citrus, and tangerine. The palate introduces new notes, such as oak and dry fruit, with some acidity, while the long finish is bitter and draws the rest out. People knock on it, but I love this bottle.

    A nose of various fruits and seaweed. The palate is creamy and has notes of carmelized fruit, with a lemony and acidic finish. The flavors are so strong and pungent, but it loses points for not having a more diverse range of notes, and also for being pricey.

    The nose is floral with honey and a creaminess. A surprising amount of variety throughout the palate: lemon and other citrus, apples and other fruits, a hint of peat. The finish is medium-length, with herbal and grassy notes.

    On the nose, fruitiness like grapes and green apple. Throughout the palate and finish, there is both dry oakiness and bubblegum, with a finish of banana and caramel.

    The nose has strong peat smoke upfront, with a backdrop of walnut and citrus. On the palate, the peat and citrus continue with unique flavors like olive oil and grey tea. On the finish, that peat smoke and citrus continue to entertain, with a balanced note of bell peppers.
