The Best Value Scotch? | Monkey Shoulder Blended Scotch Review

Monkey Shoulder is one of the most accessible blended Scotch whiskies on the market — and on this episode of The Liquor Connoisseur, Crystal and Roger give it a proper review. Named after a repetitive strain injury suffered by maltmen who turned barley by hand, Monkey Shoulder blends single malts from three of Speyside's most celebrated distilleries to create a smooth, versatile whisky. With notes of vanilla, biscuit, and subtle fruit, it's an easy drinker that works beautifully in cocktails or on the rocks. And when Crystal and Roger reveal the price point, you might be surprised — this is one of the best values in Scotch.

🥃 LC Recommendation: One of the best Scotch bottles to keep on your bar cart. Approachable for newcomers, versatile for cocktails, and priced right. Try it in a Rob Roy or simply over a large ice cube.
