Step into a world where tradition meets innovation, where shared knowledge begets unexpected brilliance, and where curiosity breeds extraordinary creations. Welcome to the world of Method & Madness Wild Cherry Wood Single Pot Irish Whiskey. This is not your standard whiskey; this is a voyage into uncharted territory, an exploration into the unconventional, and a testament to the daring spirit of the whiskey crafters at Midleton Distillery.
This world-first, limited-edition marvel dares to defy tradition, taking the road less travelled by maturing in wild cherry wood casks. The porousness of this unique wood allows the whiskey to develop intricate flavours, mirroring the complexity and beauty of its creation process. Its contact with the cherry wood introduces a symphony of flavours, from fine wine and capers to an intriguing hint of ginger spice, harmonising seamlessly with the foundational notes imparted from its initial maturation in ex-bourbon and sherry casks.
On the nose, this whiskey immediately intrigues with evocative aromas of box hedge clippings, the exotic twist of coconut fibre, and a zesty hint of shredded ginger. As you take your first sip, prepare to be swept away by a mélange of taste sensations. The fresh green herbs dance on your palate, underpinned by the robust depth of black tea and traditional pot still spices. The journey concludes with a lingering finish, echoing with the delicate yet tenacious notes of prickly spice and toasted hazelnut.
