Powers Irish Whiskey, founded by James Power in 1791 at the historic John's Lane Distillery in Dublin, stands as one of Ireland's most iconic whiskey brands. For nearly two centuries, Powers was produced at its original location until the formation of Irish Distillers in the late 1960s. Since the 1970s, production has been masterfully continued at the state-of-the-art Midleton Distillery in County Cork, where traditional methods meet modern craftsmanship. The Powers portfolio showcases both the accessible Powers Gold Label, a classic blended Irish whiskey, and an acclaimed range of single pot still expressions. The flagship Powers John's Lane Release, a 12-year-old single pot still whiskey matured in bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, exemplifies the brand's commitment to reviving Dublin's historic whiskey style—rich, spicy, and full-bodied, with distinctive pot still character that has made Powers a favorite among whiskey connoisseurs worldwide.

This one’s got a proper solid kick to it, not overly fancy but in a good way. First sip hits you with a bit of heat, more like a warm embrace than anything harsh. The fruit comes through nicely – think oranges, bananas, maybe a touch of ginger and pepper lingering behind. Not the heavy, boozy kind of thing, more of a clean, dry finish that sticks around. Creamy texture, richer than some I’ve had, but still easygoing. There’s a subtle metallic edge, almost like tinned pineapple, which gives it a unique twist. Overall, a rather long and satisfying dram – quite robust, very typical of the style, and definitely holds its own without being too flashy. 🥃

Right, so this one's proper orangey on the nose. Tangerines, really. Then it hits the tongue with a bit of barley sugar sweetness, but there's some good power behind it. Sort of a drier style, mind you. Got this interesting thick texture, almost like motor oil, but in a good way. A flash of metal and then some ginger spice comes through. The finish is rather long and peppery. Not getting much in the way of heady floral notes. Bananas and tinned pineapples linger somewhere in the background. Most certainly one of the most robust Irish I've tried so far, it's got a little more oomph than usual. Very typical stuff, in the best way. 👍

Right, sat down with this one by the fire. 🥃 Smels rich, like dried fruit and caramel. First sip warms the chest straight away. 🔥 Not too sharp, quite gentle overal. Leaves a nice tingling feeling at the end. Proper comfort in a glass, ye know? Defo gonna pour another. 🍂 Cheers. 🍻
