I always try to leave flavor tags for my reviews, but in this case I can only say it is spicy; everything else is bland. The bottle says a lot of stuff, but I could not get anything it says. The ABV is 46% hence the spiciness I could detect, but nothing else. I'm angry AND sad because this thing is almost tasteless, but costed me a lot (to my standards) and I bought TWO bottles. I not only bought TWO bottles but I gave one as a gift to my brother. Terrible gift. Method and Madness (M&M) is a Middleton micro distillery. I never tried anything from them before, but what I could understand is that this one is a (failed) experiment. Thank God a limited edition. Plain Jameson, also from Middleton, has a looooot more flavor than this guy. To make it clear, the taste is not bad, but it is also not good, because it's absent. I do not recommend, at least not for the price I paid (€98 on March 2023).98.0 EUR per Bottle

Ok, I have to restart saying that I am not an expert. I also have to say that I was drinking a peated whisky before, and intentionally tried this one to see what different notes could I get, and I was happily surprised with the new bouquet that was opened to me. Orange, vanilla and honey. It feels like a complete revamp of this fella, and I completely recommend giving it a try.23.0 EUR per BottleTesco Extra

I'm not an expert. That said... Neat ---- Alcohol present on the nose. I could not distinguish the notes at first. Later I could smell caramel and ripe bananas/pears or green apple. I could not distinguish very well. On the palate is spicy at first. When it reaches the side of the tongue is sweet and pleasant. The green apple and coconut hints are more present. The finish felt short and somewhat dry and refreshing. With water ---------- On the nose: the alcohol is gone. The scent of ripe bananas/pears and green apple is much much more strong. Almost resembles almond extract. On the palate: spiciness is gone, at first. Becomes sweeter and the ripe fruit taste diminishes but it is still present. The coconut however only appears at the end while the liquid is still in mouth slayer with the spiciness. The finish is short, not much to say. My verdict is that this is an verage whiskey: not bad at all, but far from the best I have before neither does worth the regular price tag (as per today €50). I will definitely buy again if I find another discount.30.0 EUR per BottleTesco Extra
