Powers Irish Rye Whiskey

Introducing a fresh perspective on rye whiskey – the POWERS way. With a gratifyingly lingering finish, a captivating spice, and a harmonious sweetness, this rye demands your attention. POWERS IRISH RYE emerges from meticulous experimentation. Originally tested in the 1800s and refined in the 2020s, it's a testament to the adage that timeless perfection requires time, and our 100% Irish Rye mash embodies this principle. By blending the peppery essence of rye with the sweetness derived from seasoned American oak cask maturation, this new POWERS expression exhibits genuine character, reflective of a nation renowned for its distinctiveness. TASTING NOTES Nose Burnt orange, maraschino cherries, and toffee banana with rich warming notes of freshly baked rye bread, buttered croissants and charred oak. Robust spices of clove, white pepper and ginger are met with sweet vanilla and earthy sugar cane aromas. Taste Candied ginger with orange peel, clove spice and peppermint. Caramelized apples with brown sugar, sweet cereal and red liquorice notes build while the vanilla and charred oak influences work in balance with the rye signature spices. Finish Satisfyingly long, with a prickle of chili oil that continues to linger for a time in the company of honey glazed fruits and hardy cereal undertones.
