Description

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey is a smooth and approachable Irish whiskey created to celebrate heritage, community, and the tradition of classic Irish whiskey making.

Launched in 2018, Proper No. Twelve was founded with the ambition of creating a modern Irish whiskey that honoured traditional craftsmanship while introducing the category to a new generation of drinkers.

The name reflects a connection to Dublin 12, the area of Ireland where the brand’s story began, while “Proper” represents the goal of creating an authentic and enjoyable Irish whiskey experience.

Developed through extensive blending trials, Proper No. Twelve combines golden grain whiskey with Irish malt whiskey to achieve a balance of smoothness, sweetness, and character.

The whiskey is triple distilled — a hallmark of many Irish whiskey styles — helping create its signature clean and approachable profile. It is then matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, adding notes of vanilla, honey, toasted wood, and gentle spice.

Designed to be versatile and easy-drinking, Proper No. Twelve delivers a modern expression of Irish whiskey while respecting the smooth character that has made Irish whiskey famous worldwide.
