Powers Three Swallow Irish Whiskey
Description: | Powers Three Swallow Irish WhiskeyThree Swallow is a Single Pot Still made from a mash of malted and unmalted barley, triple-distilled in traditional copper Pot Stills before aging in 2nd and 3rd fill bourbon barrels and sherry casks. This method ensures the flavor of the distillate is at the fore while a small component 3% of Sherry-aged whiskey adds harmony and finesse. The result is an incredible balance of sweetness, and spice, followed by a toasted oak finish.This Single Pot Still is inspired by the Three Swallow tradition of coachmen bringing along small flasks of Powers whiskey on long rides. Just enough to give each man a good swallow, but not enough to interfere with the job.Power's unique distillation process uses only the heart of the distillate, delivering a richly complex, and layered flavor profile that has been a standard of Irish Whiskey since 1791. This Three Swallow Release is a modern take on the original Pot Still Whiskey produced at John's Lane Distillery.John's Lane was known for having incredibly high standards. Each of his coaches had three coachmen, a driver, and assistant up front, and another at the rear. This Three Swallow whiskey is inspired by the tradition of coachmen bringing along small flasks of Powers whiskey on long rides. The amount of whiskey was just enough to give each man a good swallow, but not enough to interfere with his job. This tradition of "three swallows" was the original inspiration for the iconic Powers symbol used to this day. |
