Midleton Method & Madness Single Grain Irish Whiskey Finished in Virgin Spanish Oak

“Method and Madness is the experimental microdistillery located at Midleton Distillery where Irish whiskey brands like Jameson and Redbreast among many others are produced. This Method and Madness Single Grain ages initially in first-fill bourbon barrels and finishes its maturation in virgin Spanish oak. Bottled at 92 proof.” The Distiller

“Finely nuanced grain whiskey showing the light sweetness of honey on toast and golden syrup, with wood spices, peanut, and oak shavings. Rich mouthfeel with an enduring intensity of flavors of glazed fruits, vanilla, and citrus peel oils, with the new Spanish oak making a significant contribution through oak flavors, wood spices, crunchy oat cookies, and pecans in caramel. Those sweet toffee flavors will keep you coming back for more.” 91 Points, Jonny McCormick for the Whisky Advocate

“This release asked the question: What if we take a step away from the familiar with a Single Grain whiskey finished in Virgin Spanish Oak? Without giving too much away, the two made very good partners, with a taste of gentle wood spice playing off the natural sweetness of the grain.“
