That’s interesting, I didn’t know that. Thanks.

Russian River Chard... solid acid backbone doing well with veg and salad courses. Figuring out which French red to pair with the ribeye.

I've found Monkey Shoulder to be a decent, if not terribly exciting, blended malt. (It's a melding of youngish whiskies from the Glenfiddich, Balvenie and Kininvie sites - all of these owned by William Grant & Sons.) There's an easy-going, creamy and decidedly sweet slant to its palate presentation that kind of flies right by you. And the finish isn't exactly a lengthy one, either.
Been trying to figure out where the hell I saw Monkey Shoulder posted at the last few weeks.

I finally bought a bottle, and found it to be not too bad. It comes across pretty smooth to me, and slides right down.
