Created at the Midleton Micro Distillery by Distiller Katherine Condon, this latest release is said to pay tribute to the traditional malt flavours of sweet cereal, green apple and notes of lemon zest, while the inclusion of oats brings new tastes and aromas with notes of marshmallow and fudge along with a sumptuously creamy finish.
Commenting on the launch Katherine Condon, said: “Nearly a
year on from the release of Method and Madness - Rye and Malt, we are extremely
proud to introduce the world to the second release from our Micro Distillery in
Midleton. The innovations within Irish whiskey continue to play a key role in
growing the industry and it is a joy to be a part of that with the work we do
at the Micro Distillery. The Oats and Malt release represents something
exciting. By working with traditional malted barley in copper pot stills and
combining this with Irish sourced oats, we are honouring our past while pushing
forward with innovation. This is an extraordinary Irish whiskey offering that
is a first for Method and Madness.”
Method and Madness – Oats and Malt, is now available in the
UK, Ireland and Dublin Airport, for a RRP of €95.00.
