## Description

Product Description Febreze Bathroom air freshener fights odours from the air and also prevents them from lingering on soft surfaces such as towels, bath mats and shower curtains, for up to 45 days. It contains Odourclear technology, various perfume molecules that easily bind to a broad range of bad odour molecules. Once connected, they react to become a new molecule, forcing them to change their stinky ways. Odour convertors are especially efficient for long-term use, so your bathroom is always guest-ready. With no electricity or batteries required, Febreze Bathroom is convenient and easy to use, available in a variety of scents. Orchid is inspired by the gentle scent of sweet orchid flowers.

Review: No Monkey Business, Just Smooth Sipping - Monkey Shoulder is hands down one of the best introductions to Scotch whisky you could ask for. It’s incredibly smooth, light, and approachable, making it perfect for those who are new to whisky but still want something full of character. The flavour is rich with honey, vanilla, and a gentle maltiness, all blending together in a way that’s silky and easy to enjoy without any harsh edges. The bottle itself has a modern, playful design, with the three little brass monkeys on the shoulder standing out as a signature touch. It feels just as fun and inviting as the whisky inside. Where Monkey Shoulder really shines is its versatility. It’s beautiful neat (soft and sweet without being overwhelming) and just as enjoyable over ice. And if you like a longer drink, it pairs effortlessly with cola, ginger ale, or just about any mixer you can think of, always staying smooth and balanced. Monkey Shoulder isn’t just a great Scotch; it’s a whisky that welcomes everyone, whether you’re a seasoned drinker or just starting your journey. Easy to sip, easy to mix, and always enjoyable. This one is a must-have.
Review: Smooth, Versatile, and Perfect for Mixing or Sipping! - Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is an exceptional choice for both whisky beginners and enthusiasts. Unlike many blended whiskies, this one is made exclusively from malt whiskies, giving it a rich, smooth, and well-balanced flavor that stands out. On the nose, it has a sweet, malty aroma with notes of honey, vanilla, and light oak. The taste is smooth and creamy, with hints of toffee, citrus, and subtle spice, making it incredibly easy to drink. It has a medium finish, with lingering sweetness and a touch of oak. What I love about Monkey Shoulder is its versatility—it’s great neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Whisky Sour. It’s smooth enough to sip, but also bold enough to hold its own in mixed drinks. Pros: Exceptionally smooth and easy to drink Rich, malty flavor with sweet and citrusy notes Great for both sipping and cocktails No overpowering smokiness, making it accessible High quality at a reasonable price Cons: Lacks the heavy peat and smoke that some whisky lovers prefer Slightly lower complexity compared to aged single malts Overall, Monkey Shoulder is a fantastic, well-rounded whisky that’s perfect for casual sipping or creative cocktails. If you’re looking for a smooth, high-quality blended malt at a great price, this is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!
