The fruit and chocolate stay one step ahead of the spices; orange, chocolate, coffee, apricot, boiled candy, marmalade on buttered toast, and barley sugar meet a finish of heavier spices, bitter chocolate, and dusty cocoa. Unmistakable, epic whiskey.
Powers John’s Lane 12 Year Old is a classic Irish Whiskey and one that really sets the bar. There’s an enjoyable spice and an overall richness that’ll bring you back for more and more.
The nose is classy and aromatic, with a flavorful dense textured palate. If you are looking for a delight, Powers John's Lane is a great whiskey at a very very good price range!
Slightly nutty on the finish, with hints of charcoal and chocolate, too. This is a whiskey that offers tremendous depth, not something you typically associate with Irish, which is often made in a simpler style. Well done, Powers.
