Fercullen Falls is a blend of malt and grain whiskeys, with a high malt content highlighting the unique style of the Powerscourt Distillery. A 50/50 blend, the malt whiskey has matured in first fill ex-bourbon barrels and the grain in a combination of ex-bourbon and new heavy char oak casks. The whiskey is bottled at 43% ABV, with its higher than standard malt whiskey blend which is perfect for enjoying straight or as a base for your favourite cocktail. This release marks a new era for the distillery with the inclusion of its own distilled whiskeys for the very first time.
“The light music of whiskey falling into a glass – an agreeable interlude” – James Joyce.
An apt description for the distillery as the name refers to the Powerscourt waterfall, Ireland’s highest waterfall at 121 metres. Its contemporary design evokes thoughts of whiskey falling into a glass and being shared amongst friends.
