Method & Madness Virgin Spanish Oak Finish Review

Rex & Daniel sample a pour from "Jameson's Mad Science Lab" aged in a little-used wood.
Big thanks to Richard Amiro for the bottle. Cheers ya M.B.!

One of my favorite blends must be longmorn 16 (green) and fireball. Pour 1 oz of longmorn into a glass, and then slowly pour 3oz of fireball into the kitchen sink, while enjoying the whisky.

Here is my Blend: "Bruichladdich Trifecta" 75% Port Charlotte Islay Barley ~23% Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie and a dash of Octomore 8.3 Nose: Light Fruits of Classic Bruichladdich (Lemons, Peach), Salty, Floral, Creamy Vanilla and a hint of gentle peat smoke. Taste: Wood Spice, Citrus Fruits and beautiful, layered peat. Finish: That Octomore really makes a difference and the peat and warmth just stays with you forever.

A blend I just discovered that I love is Old Forester 1915. The 1910 is one of my favorite bourbons. 1915 is a 50/50 blend of 1910 and 1920, so it takes all the flavors of the 1910 and cranks them up a notch with the added proof aid the 1920. Once my 1910 bottle is half gone I plan on refilling it with 1920 so the two can mingle for a lot longer than just in a glass.

[@arcturus8016]

I'm gonna need to try this, I love 1910 and 1920! I do a similar now with Weller 107 and Special Reserve.

Somm and Mooch, my family was in Ireland and Scotland two years for two plus weeks and we visited Jameson for the experience. It was the first day that they were releasing their first Gin from the Method and Madness team. My wife and two daughters love Gin so they were excited and we all tasted the Gin. However, I was captivated by all the M&M Whiskeys and spent several minutes speaking to the bartender. After the tour, we also signed up for the special tasting. The bartender made it extra special with one additional whiskey to taste. It was a M&M 28 year whiskey. The color was and the nose was amazing with black pepper, oak, dark fruit and toffee. The taste was sublime with all the nose items plus dark chocolate and leather. Once finished we toured the store and bought several bottles of the new gin, special Jameson and the very bottle you are tasting in this video. It was excellent and I shared it with several serious Whiskey lovers and all loved it and were not happy it was not available in US. Nowadays I saw Total Wine has brought it to the US.

Blending is a great way to use all of those Ballantines bottles you got as gifts from your friends. It takes up flavor ridiculously well. Do something like 75% Ballantines, 25% Laphroaig QC and a teaspoon or two of port/sherry (let's pretend the cask was wet 😉), let it sit for a week and you've got yourself a nicely drinkable table whisky.

This is the closest the public can get to recreating the permanently-discontinued and beloved J.P. Wiser's Legacy recipe. For extra zing, use Cask Strength Lot 40 (Canada only). It might be very difficult to find Wiser's 18 outside of Canada, and Lot 40 is available in SOME places but still not as broadly as, say, Crown Royal.

Inspiration comes from everywhere. I think of tying my kitchen garbage bag before I take it out to the curb when I see Rex with a man bun. Thank you for the reminder...Hipster style is on point today. Question 🙋🏻‍♂️...What is the conversational name for the three different cuts of spirit as it comes off the stills? Benefits for each?

[@SuvinRK]

IIRC the names of the 3 cuts are heads, hearts, and tails. And from my limited knowledge, I think you get different characteristics that you can blend together using the cuts, specifically the hearts and tails. Also iirc, heads are never used because it's methanol and methanol isn't the alcohol you're after for drinking. The alcohol for drinking is ethanol. Hope this is of some use! Additionally, a search using the terms "heads hearts tails", "heads hearts tails distilling" or something similar will provide some good resources for better answers to your questions.

@@Retro_Beek A Tribe episode on this topic is a good idea! And happy to be of assistancel

[@elixwhitetail]

@@SuvinRK Actually, the stuff you always throw out that has the methanol and other crap is called the foreshots and comes before the heads. The heads cut is things you CAN drink without fear of toxicity, but it's the highest-proof cuts and they're often sharp and jagged compared to the smooth hearts. Some distillery profiles might include taking cuts into the early heads for a bit of edge, but just like the tails cut there's a point where it just tastes bad and you don't want it.
