Monkey Shoulder.



Monkey Shoulder is a malt made from a blend of three malts (Glenfiddich, Balvenie and Kininvie) with aromas of honey, cinnamon and vanilla. 

Telling the story of this whiskey is interesting. The maltmen that once stirred barley with a shovel, were constantly exposed to tunes that were causing them serious rheumatism currents. This disease malting was known as the "monkey shoulder" shoulder monkey. It is a tribute to these maltmen that Grant's family owns the iconic Glenfiddich distillery has created this 'triple malt'.

Cheers,

F.
