In this episode, my guest, Bryce, and I review Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Scotch Whisky. As a bit of an experiment, we try smelling the most prominent flavor notes (an actual orange, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract) in order to see if it helps us better pull the flavors from the whiskey. Finally, we conclude by ranking Monkey Shoulder among the other whiskeys that Bryce has had on the show.
