$74.95
Overview
Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey · Bourbon and Sherry Casks · 40% ABV · 700ml

Powers Three Swallow is a single pot still Irish whiskey made from malted and unmalted barley at Midleton Distillery in County Cork. Matured predominantly in ex-bourbon barrels with a sherry-cask component, it is bottled at 40% ABV without an age statement.

Cinnamon, nutmeg and roasted nuts lead into brown sugar, green apple and citrus. This is a single pot still expression, distinct from Powers Gold Label's blend of pot still and grain whiskeys.
