3.5
3.5 out of 5 stars
So my whisky journey begins. Begins early, after making a list of bottles to start with and then seeing monkey shoulder for £22 in supermarket. I had heard good things online about this whisky so had to proceed!
On the nose I’m getting a nice sweet vanilla. I also notice a more buttery scent just after swirling the glass as another reviewer mentioned. Slight spicy note. Personally not getting any orange/fruit.
Taste- sweetness hit, nice full bodied taste. Deep Vanilla/caramel.
I would second others on harshness, but this seems less noticeable with bigger sips!
Overall a nice sweet, rich and slightly spicy character!
Red Apple, orange, and fabric softener on the nose. Carmel, butterscotch, spicy.
Terrific value for the price ($30-35). Also, the smooth and standard scotch flavor makes it great for cocktails
