Nomad is a unique whisky, a Scotch That Isn’t Scotch
A collaboration between sherry producer González Byass and Whyte & Mackay master blender Richard Paterson.
A blended Scotch whisky aged for more than five years in sherry butts is shipped to Jerez for further year’s ageing in PX casks.
Nose: Quite big and well-rounded. There are notes of chewy sultanas and Sherried peels, barley sugars and toasty cereals with petals and apple blossom. A touch of fudge and gentle wisps of smoke.
Palate: Full and rich with notes of chewy, tannic oak. Manuka honey and walnut with Cox’s apples and orange peels. Cut herbs – fennel and spearmint.
Finish: Long and dry with a spicy oak note.
ABV : 40%
Country : Scotland
Type : Single Malt Whisky
Rooted in malt whisky history, and inspired by the malat men who still turn the malting barely by hand. Monkey shoulder is blended in small batches of three fine speyside single malts then married achieve a smoother, richer taste.
Nose: An elegant, stylish nose of marmalade, Crema Catalana (apologies, but it really is there), cocoa and malt. Plenty of vanilla and a sprinkling of winter spice (nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon) alongside a mouth-watering hint of aniseed.
Palate: Very malty, creamy delivery with a suggestion of berry fruit. Juicy toasted barley, cloves and butterscotch. Manuka honey, hot-buttered-toast and dried apricot develop.
Finish: Medium length, spicy oak and a hint of peppermint on the tail.
Overall: According to the Monkey Shoulder website: “Some say it tastes just like riding bareback on the wild moors of Scotland with a flame haired maiden on Christmas morning. Others agree it tastes like 007 wearing a tuxedo wetsuit.” This is whisky to be enjoyed.
