Fercullen 15 single grain whiskey from the Powerscourt distillery, has recently been awarded the title of the World’s Best Grain at the World Whiskies Awards that took place in London.
Having secured the title of Ireland’s Best Grain Whiskey in Dublin in February this year, Fercullen 15 progressed to the global stage, competing against the best regional grain whiskies from around the world.
“Winning this award is a significant milestone for Fercullen. It reflects our commitment to excellence and our passion for producing world-class whiskey,” Paul Corbett, master distiller, said.
The Fercullen 15 year old single grain whiskey, celebrated for its ‘distinctive flavour, remarkable smoothness, and outstanding quality’, now stands as the world’s best true testament to the distillery mastery.
‘Leading position’
This win elevates the Fercullen and the Powerscourt Distillery to a leading position in the whiskey industry, confirming the Wicklow based distillery ‘among the finest in the world’.
At the same awards, Powerscourt’s small batch blend, Fercullen Falls was announced as Ireland’s best blended whiskey.
“Grain whiskey is an often-underrated style of Irish whiskey, its softer notes and general sweet tones appeal to a wide audience,” John Cashman, head of brand and recent Whisky Hall of Fame inductee, said.
The World Whiskies Awards is renowned for its rigorous judging process, which includes blind tastings by a panel of industry experts.
Winning this award highlights Fercullen’s dedication to maintaining the highest standards in whiskey production and their unwavering commitment to quality.
Fercullen Irish whiskey is distributed by Barry and Fitzwilliam.
