Monkey Shoulder is owned by William Grant & Sons. The blended malt whisky was first launched in 2005 and is “made to savour neat or shine boldly in classic cocktails like the Monkey Old Fashioned.”
“Born in Speyside, Scotland, Monkey Shoulder blended malt whisky is crafted for character and versatility,” the brand said.
The Monkey Shoulder name refers to a condition once suffered by maltmen who turned barley by hand, which caused a strain on the shoulder.
The Fred again.. partnership extends this positioning into live events on a global scale. More information is available at monkeyshoulder.com.
