I know they sell Powers at Martin Wine Cellar in Baton Rouge, cuz I've bought it there before. I wanna say I paid $18 or so a bottle for it.
I heard that the reason for Powers' popularity is that Jameson is seen as Catholic whiskey and Bushmills is seen as Protestant whiskey -- so if you're out for a drink at an Irish pub and you don't want no shite, it's easier to get Powers. Plus, the price and the quality are the same as Jameson and Bushmills.

Old wives tale. Some friends of mine from Ireland said they had never heard this until they moved to the U.S. Both Bushmill's and Jameson's are owned by the same company.
