Episode 316: May 15, 2011
The Powers family distilled whiskey for seven generations and two centuries on John’s Lane in Dublin, and John Ryan is the seventh and final generation to carry on his family’s tradition. While the Powers Distillery closed nearly 40 years ago, its legacy is now part of Irish Distillers, and John shares that history with us in this episode. In the news, plenty of new whiskies, awards, auctions, and a chance to buy a piece of Ponzi scheme history!
