Midleton Method and Madness Single Malt

It’s no secret that Midleton hold a number of iconic and world-renowned distilleries under their wing: from Jameson to Redbreast to Green Spot. Now get ready to try their latest progeny, only founded this century and already finding itself around the world in the homes of whisky and whiskey lovers alike.

This single malt from Midleton Method and Madness received a primary maturation in ex-Bourbon casks before being finished in fine French Limouisin Oak casks, sourced from Isere in the French region of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Ordinarily used for Cognac maturation, this looser-grained wood makes it ideal for ageing whisky compared to other French oaks, imparting more oak influence which results in a fuller-flavoured dram.

An excellent example of what Midleton’s whiskymakers can achieve, this 14-year-old showcases is oily and well-rounded, showcasing Method and Madness' classic spirit: green grape and dried kiwi fruit notes amongst a structured base of vanilla milkshake and toasted barley with warming spices.

The judges at both the International Wine and Spirits Competition as well as the International Spirits Challenge clearly agree, having awarded this single malt Gold Medals on multiple occasions.

Frankly, this was outrageously good value. A single malt aged 14 years, bottled with non-chill filtration and natural colour at a perfect 46% ABV from one of the biggest names in Irish whiskey? Yes please.
