Method and Madness French Chestnut Casks Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey
Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey | French Chestnut Cask Finish | 46% ABV (92 Proof) | 700mL
Process & Profile
Method and Madness French Chestnut Casks Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is part of the innovative cask-driven series from Irish Distillers’ Midleton Distillery. This release begins with traditional Irish single pot still whiskey — distilled from a mash of malted and unmalted barley — then undergoes finishing in French chestnut casks. French chestnut wood is less commonly used in whiskey maturation, and its naturally wide grain and tannin profile can contribute enhanced spice character, nutty complexity, and finely structured mouthfeel. The Method and Madness series is built to explore how unconventional woods influence Irish whiskey style, and this French chestnut finish adds unique aromatic depth and textural richness to the classic pot still foundation.
