Very, very well regarded Islay single malt. I’ve got a nearly full bottle in my cupboard I save for guests. And, for a decent Scotch it won’t break most banks…found most places right at the $50 price point.For me, at about $30 I’m in for Monkey Shoulder Scotch…a superb blended malt <a href="https://www.masterofmalt.com/whisky/" target="_blank">whisky</a> from William Grant, made with single malts from three famous Speyside distilleries…Glenfiddich, Balvenie, and Kininvie. The result is a smooth, creamy, supple and very malty Scotch which works superbly well neat, over ice, or in whisky cocktails.  I’ve seen it compared to sipping “brunch” — sweet melon, honey, a bit of Earl Grey tea, and some orange citrus.</blockquote>
