Process & Profile

Method and Madness Bourbon Cask Rye & Malt Irish Whiskey is an inventive release from the Method and Madness series crafted by Irish Distillers at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland. This expression begins with a blend of rye-influenced grain whiskey and malt whiskey, bringing together spice and malt sweetness in a balanced base. After primary maturation, the whiskey is finished in ex-bourbon American oak casks, allowing the influence of fresh oak, vanilla, and caramel to integrate with the rye’s signature spice and the malt’s rich, grain-driven depth. The result is a layered Irish whiskey with bold presence, subtle complexity, and a smooth, refined finish.
