Have we mentioned cheeky cocktails to get you in the mood for the festivities? 

This Christmas, Monkey Shoulder is painting the town orange. With the most wonderful time of the year finally round the corner, the free-spirited, fun-loving blended malt whisky is inviting all whisky and cocktail lovers to #MakeItMonkey, get merry and mix it up at its newly launched festive pop-up bar. 

Monkey Shoulder pop-up bar at Bonifacio Global City

Located by the Monkey Shoulder Giving Tree along C1 in Bonifacio Global City, the pop-up bar will be run in partnership with a lineup of your favourite watering holes throughout the festive season to serve up playful whisky cocktails that will get you in the mood for the celebrations. Have we not mentioned the best part of this yet? To give shoppers the chance to sample delicious Monkey Shoulder serves,  every guest above the legal drinking age is entitled to one complimentary cocktail per weekend.  

In November, weekend goers can look forward to cheeky cocktail creations by bartenders from 205 on November 12 to 13, iDarts DASH on November 19 to 20, Skye on November 26 to 27, Fireside on December 3 to 4, and Boozy on December 24 and 25. For updates on the latest event happenings, as well as new additions to the featured bar line-up in December, follow Monkey Shoulder’s Facebook and Instagram.  

“There’s no better way to celebrate Christmas than to unwind and unleash your playful side with your favourite mix of people, but we know the festivities can’t quite be the same just yet as we all continue to navigate the new rules for mixing,” said Samuel Ng, Regional Brand Ambassador for Monkey Shoulder. “We’re so excited to be able to bring Monkey Shoulder’s festive pop-up to Manila, and from offering cheeky cocktails to consumers doing their Christmas shopping, to inspiring them to #MakeItMonkey for their celebrations at home with our deliciously decorated Giving Tree, we hope this gets consumers feeling festive and ready to make the most of the Christmas season.” 

The Monkey Shoulder Giving Tree and pop-up bar will be open till December 31, 2021.

About Monkey Shoulder

With an eye-catching bottle, intriguing name and a mischievous attitude, Monkey Shoulder has created a stir as the Scotch that leaps out from the whisky crowd. Monkey Shoulder is a marriage of selected 100 per cent malt whisky from Speyside, Scotland. It is crafted in small batches to achieve a smoother, richer taste. The 86 proof (43% ABV) whisky is made from 100 per cent malted barley – not a drop of grain is used – and aged exclusively in first-fill Bourbon barrels for exceptional smoothness. On its own, Monkey Shoulder is smooth and rich, while its versatility allows for a wide range of great-tasting cocktails. Visit www.MonkeyShoulder.com.
