Monkey Shoulder is a Scotch whisky brand known for its blended malt style, meaning it is made entirely from malt whiskies with no grain whisky in the blend. The texture tends to be soft and approachable, with less emphasis on heavy smoke or peat than many Scotch whiskies. This style has helped it appeal both to newcomers and experienced whisky drinkers. While many Scotch brands emphasize drinking whisky neat, Monkey Shoulder actively promotes cocktails such as the Whisky Sour, Old Fashioned, and other mixed drinks. This positioning helped it gain popularity in bars around the world.
