Powers & Sons Gold Label Irish Whiskey (750ml)
90
Whisky Advocate
Ground cinnamon, coriander seed, nutmeg, mustard seed, spiced meat, and the saltiness of sand-encrusted seashells combine with a powerful honey note, fresh pear, golden sultana, and Cox’s apple. Quaker Oats, golden syrup, and chocolate-covered graham crackers with cherries set the scene, though spices quickly engulf them. Perfect harmony is reestablished as it fattens out with cinnamon toffee. Bold, robust, and triumphant: just add a Dublin pub weekend crowd and you’re all set. (JM, Fall 2019)

Notes
The classic Gold Label from Powers & Sons. Powers Gold Label is cut from the heart of the distillate. That means more top and tail gets thrown away than any other Irish whiskey. Left to mature in selected American oak casks, this is where the spicy, bold character takes hold. A complex and honeyed taste is yours for the taking. Maker note: "Nose is cinnamon, clove oil and white pepper in balance with russet apples and ripe pears, on a background of charred oak. Taste is cinnamon, green peppers and a touch of nutmeg combined with orchard fruits, vanilla and toasted oak. All laid upon a crisp barley core. Finish is long Pot Still oils and spices slowly fade to rich barley, toasted wood and a wonderfully complex honey flavour."
