Powers Signature Release

High strength. Bold profile. A farewell to a fan favourite.
A symbol of Ireland’s whiskey revival, Powers Signature Release was crafted as a testament to what makes the Powers name truly iconic — depth, spice, and unwavering character. Though now discontinued, this exceptional expression remains a beloved treasure among collectors and whiskey lovers, embodying the spirit of craftsmanship that defined generations of Dublin distillers.

Born from a meticulous triple distillation process and matured in a combination of American oak bourbon barrels and Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, Signature Release offered a whiskey of extraordinary depth and balance. The bourbon casks provided layers of vanilla, honey, and charred oak, while the sherry wood added subtle tones of dried fruit, nutmeg, and warm spice. The result is a whiskey that feels both powerful and polished — unmistakably Powers, yet uniquely expressive in its complexity.

On the nose, you’ll find rich honeycomb, baked apples, toasted oak, and hints of cinnamon, followed by a palate that bursts with malted barley sweetness, green fruit, and warming spice. Every sip carries the hallmarks of Ireland’s single pot still tradition — smooth texture, layered flavour, and a long, rewarding finish that leaves notes of spice and oak gently fading away.

This is not merely a whiskey; it’s a tribute to Ireland’s whiskey-making heritage — a moment in time captured in liquid form. For those who appreciate authentic craftsmanship, Powers Signature Release remains one of the finest expressions of Ireland’s modern whiskey renaissance.

Why we love it:
There’s something deeply nostalgic about the Powers Signature Release (Old Bottle). It bridges Ireland’s whiskey past and present — combining the spice and structure of traditional pot still whiskey with a modern richness and finesse. Though it’s no longer in production, each remaining bottle tells a story of dedication, innovation, and the quiet pride of Irish distillers who never compromise on quality.
