Powers John Lane Release

Powers John's Lane Release is a highly acclaimed 12-year-old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey produced at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork, Ireland.

Known for its exceptional balance and rich texture, it is widely regarded as one of the quintessential examples of classic Irish single pot still distilling
