John Powers Description
"Powers is a rich, round, complex and full-flavoured drinking experience, rated as "One of the best in all Ireland. Classic stuff", in Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible 2007.
Nose: Fruity, spicy with some dry peppery tones.
Taste: Full flavoured predominantly pot still with honeyed spicy notes.
Finish: Long, sweet and sour with lingering spice."
Whiskey Advocate: 91 Points
After being around for about a decade, it’s nice to see this whiskey finally being sold in the U.S. Soft, sweet, and silky smooth, with creamy vanilla, caramel, toasted marshmallow, and honey-kissed tropical fruit (mango, pineapple, coconut). I get most of the barley on the front of the palate, with the grain whiskey components more on the finish. Something seems slightly missing for me to elevate this whiskey to classic status (some more pot still character, perhaps?), but it’s still a wonderful blended Irish whiskey, and so drinkable. Gather a bunch of friends and throw away the cork!
