Powers is an old classic. It was once made in the old John's Lane Distillery in Dublin, but since the 1970s it has been made at Midleton in County Cork. Little has changed in the recipe, however. At one time it was the best selling whiskey on the Island of Ireland, and there are still pockets around the country where it outsells Jameson.
Triple distilled, pot still blend, matured in American Oak casks. Smooth, elegant, and spicy. Nose of cinnamon, pears and charred Oak. Taste of honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and orchard fruits. A finish of pot still oils and toasted wood.
43.2% ABV / 86.4 Proof
750 ML

Powers is an old classic. It was once made in the old John's Lane Distillery in Dublin, but since the 1970s it has been made at Midleton in County Cork. Little has changed in the recipe, however. At one time it was the best selling whiskey on the Island of Ireland, and there are still pockets around the country where it outsells Jameson.

The blend is dominated by generous pot still content which is blended with a small amount of grain whiskey. All ageing is done in ex-bourbon casks which gives the whiskey a nicely rounded character.

POWERS GOLD LABEL is cut from the heart of the distillate. That means more top and tail gets thrown away than any other Irish whiskey. Left to mature in selected American oak casks, this is where the spicy, bold character takes hold. A complex and honeyed taste is yours for the taking.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Cinnamon, clove oil and white pepper in balance with russet apples and ripe pears, on a back-ground of charred oak.

Taste: Cinnamon, green peppers and a touch of nutmeg combined with orchard fruits, vanilla and toasted oak. All laid upon a crisp barley core.

Finish: Long Pot Still oils and spices slowly fade to rich barley, toasted wood and a wonderfully complex honey flavour.
