Method And Madness Single Pot Irish Whiskey represents a $84 proposition in the evolving Irish whiskey landscape.
Palate
A playful whiskey, I assume it is triple distilled as it is very smooth. The palate highlights softer and lighter notes than I expected for an ex-bourbon barrel maturation. The light but complex palate reminds me of Japanese whiskies, so if youre into Yamazaki 12, Hibiki Harmony, and Suntory Toki, this is a great way to ease into Irish whiskey.
Finish
No age statement. Aged in sherry and American barrels, finished in French chestnut. 92 proof (46% ABV). $84/700ml.
