Powers is a brand of Irish whiskey produced by the Irish Distillers subsidiary of Pernod Ricard. Historically a single pot still whiskey, the flagship Powers Gold Label brand was the first Irish whiskey ever to be bottled.[1] Powers Gold Label was the best-selling whiskey in Ireland.[2]
In recent years, several single pot still variants have been relaunched under the Powers label.[1]
