Fair play to John Hansell, who has tasted Powers Signature Release Single Pot Still (46%ABV/NCF) and talks about it here:

I noticed the touch of green in the label too.

Looking forward to this. The youger age might make it an interesting alternative to PJL. The price is alright too.

I'm hearing a rumour that PJL 12 is going to be phased out in favour of this one - stock up now!!!

Hi Luke I suspect the demise of PLJ is greatly exaggerated...

Good round-up here...

I'm back to work tomorrow and will be calling a few people in the know to see if I can find any more info.

The society could have another Power to the people tasting. Probably call it Power To The People, Right on! This time. :thumbsup:

Has anyone heard when this is available on the domestic market. I know it's been available in the US since late June/ early July.
I rang IDL today to order gin and vodka and they didn't seem to know what was going on with it.

Picked up one at the Party Source after speaking with John Clement Ryan about it at Chicago Whiskyfest. It is good, but substantially younger than John's Lane to my taste. It would be interesting to find out the age, since the coloration is the same as John's Lane.

Also curious if the 12 year Special Reserve will be maintained as a brand extension or if the Signature Release will replace it.
