Monkey Shoulder is named in honour of their malt men, who are among
the few to still turn the malting barley by hand. Monkey Shoulder was
the name given to a temporary injury the malt men suffered many years
ago. Working practices have now changed and the condition thankfully no
longer exists.The Malt Master has created the world’s first ‘triple’
malt by combing only single malts and no grain whisky, from three of
Speyside’s finest distilleries. Monkey Shoulder is produced in small
batches of 27 casks for a richer smoother taste.
