Powers Irish Whiskey is produced at the New Midleton Distillery by Irish Distillers, a subsidiary of the massive French drinks company Pernod Ricard. The brand has a long history. It was founded in 1791 by James Power, an innkeeper from Dublin, and is thought to be very first Irish Whiskey to be bottled.

The result Powers John’s Lane Release 12 Year Old Whisky is a Single Pot Still whiskey of outstanding flavour and complexity which provides a fitting tribute to the spiritual home of one of Ireland’s most loved whiskeys.
