Monkey Shoulder

General description

nuce whisky fir the price

Palate

orange

Finish

oak

General description

No monkey on the back with this dram.

Nose

There's been a lot of conjecture I've read about this whisky, mainly about a lack of quality. Not for me. This turns out to be a really complex dram in places given its price tag, with spice and a certain light peat and salt quality proffered early, leading into honey and vanilla, followed by something close to nutmeg. There is a caramel and fruit scent buried far back in this one. In view of previous reviews, I am both surprised and pleased thus far.

Palate

Very decent indeed. A real quality abounds here, barley is present as is a spicy maltiness that hides the fruit mainly but pulls forward a toasted bread and honey taste. If I had to select a particular fruit, it would be a toss up between apricot and even dried fig. Very good again.

Finish

Long, pretty long, oaky and peppery at the end but not to the diminution of what has gone before. This is an unmistakably excellent blend that has had a lot of time spent on perfecting its niche qualities. I know that this is talked about as a mixer sometimes but I think it almost be a crime not to enjoy it neat. Yes... excellent.

General description

Zapach: wanilia i miód, gdzieś tam trochę alkohol się przebija. Jakieś owoce, jabłko. Po jakimś czasie ta wanilia zanika i główne skrzypce grają owoce.
Smak: Słodka, dość pieprzna, rozgrzewająca, na języku lekka, trochę wanilii. Krótki finisz. Trochę owocowa. Po zapachu oczekiwałem więcej. Trochę kurzu czuć w smaku.

General description

In that price range one of my favs. Sweet, delicate, honey and raisins (but the last one is not a popular opiniom)

General description

Sharp after taste, money price wise good.

General description

Дуже люблю це віскі: назва, дизайн пляшки, запах, смак- все на висоті

Nose

При першому знайомстві переважає липовий мед

Palate

Багатий смак, п‘ється приємно, проте зовсім не такий як запах, різкіший і солодкість відходить на другий план

Finish

Не навязливий терпеий фініш

General description

Guter Blended Single Malt zu allen Gelegenheiten.
Eher mild, sehr zurückhaltende Rauchnote...
Guter Einsteiger- Malt Scotch.

General description

Nice whisky for multiple purposes. Good solo but even better on rocks, as part of the drink or with cola.

Nose

Nice, fruits, sweet, light and with caramel hints

Palate

Neat, fruits and citrus hints, it’s simple whisky so it’s hard to expect too much. All in all it’s good product with taste good for the price

Finish

Worst part of whisky, a little bit tart an alcoholic. It does not disqualify but also does not help

General description

General description

Я люблю Speyside. Этот виски представляет собой классический бленд из молтов Speyside. Очень карамельный ванильный вкус, но с высоким, на мой взгляд, уровнем лака. Очень приятный нос. Никаких отрицательных эмоций не вызвал, но и не впечатлил. Аромат однозначно лучше, че вкус. Считаю, что дороговат за свои деньги. Если брать, то со скидками.

General description

Ваниль, леденцы, спелые фрукты, лёгкая перечность и спиртуозность. Неплохой вариант для знакомства со Спейсайдом, свои деньги оправдывает.

General description

I think this is the best scotch blend there is. And its not even that expensive. On the taste it has a strong vanilla and some other sweety notes.

General description

sweet, straghtforward, decent malt

General description

it has a sweet stay but finishes quite aggressively for me. I cut it with a bit of water and still added ice. its good whiskey, but there are definitely better at this price point. will buy when on sale.

Ein toller Blend, weit verfügbar und gut bezahlbar. Kann man pur trinken oder als Basis für einen Scotch-Cocktail.

Smooth initially with hints of sweetness. Soon turns to sharp with hints of spiciness. No real ongoing aftertaste but very warming feel which lingers on. Overall a pleasant no nonsense everyday tipple for a blended whiskey at the price.

General description

sweet, fruity, citrus, like orange, a bit of cinnamon and spice so sweet it almost seems artificial to some extent, to people with who like challenging whiskies this would be dissapointing most of the time, but it does what people need it to, and it does it damn well

General description

a good wisjey

General description

Not really my thing but because of some surprising and interesting notes it's not a complete failure to me. If I got it as a gift, I wouldn't be angry 😉

Nose

Nose is voluminous but quite flat and easy. Vanilla, cereals, raspberries, orange cest and a gingery or herbal spiciness.

Palate

A bit more interesting than expected but not too enjoyable for my taste. The herbal touch comes in a medical way and it developes some salt and roasted nuts.

Finish

Finish adstringend and drying with a really metallic bitterness.

General description

Good blend with vanilla and peaty notes.

General description

Gewoon lekkere goede whisky voor een leuke prijs

General description

Very good blend of three great Speyside malts (Balvenie, Glenfiddich, Kininvie). Great value and great beginner scotch but in due time one’s palate craves a bit more complexity.

First foray into Scotch whiskey and I must say, I'm impressed. Mild flavor, very little burn and no aftertaste. Fantastic for mixing with cola (Mt. Dew, yum). Glad I started with this brand.

General description

One reason I give this goodness a 95. It is excellent for mixing cocktails. Highly recommend for a inexpensive scotch.

General description

great stuff would definitely recommend!

General description

Not bad, but the taste is completely gone after 2 seconds. Good for mixing with cola I guess.

General description

A great Whisky to taste, it's so smooth as mentioned it can be mistaken for a Single malt. all in all, a great after taste and a bottle needed in every house

General description

Very smooth and mild whisky.
After taste is not very strong and doesn't last very long, but a nice whisky.

General description

nice vanilla, a bit of fruit

General description

Maybe a bit too sweet. Fast fade of taste, but a really "well done" blend.

General description

A very nice blend, vanilla and honey. It became one of my favorite.

General description

This is my favorite blended Scotch. Mildly sweet, smooth, delicious, and affordable!

General description

Too sweet, should be classified as liqueur rather than whisky.
The taste dissipates quickly and leave nothing but a watery remnant behind.

As a basis for your drink, I can recommend this. As a whisky to enjoy neat, I would stay clear.

General description

One of the better blended ones and not very expensive. I've never owned a bottle but have had it a lot when going out. I recommend going with a little water or one cube of ice for this one. As always, I tend to prefer a single malt, so I probably won't buy myself a whole bottle, but you can do a lot worse than Monkey Shoulder.

General description

Nice blend from "William Grant & Sons Distillers". Easy drinkable. Sherry sweetness. Also as usual there is E150a (food coloring) in it. It is normal for most scotch and other whiskies, but nonetheless I keep in my mind - this beautiful color is unnatural, for a pity...

General description

not bad

General description

Good, pleasant dram, for a blend. Definitely entry-level scotch, but a well-done one.
