Product Description
Proper No. Twelve 13 Year Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a serious step up—bringing real age, structure, and cask-driven complexity to a brand better known for easy-drinking blends. Aged 13 years and finished in bourbon and ruby port casks, it delivers a richer, more layered profile of vanilla, toasted oak, and dark fruit. This is Proper Twelve repositioned as a legitimate sipping whiskey, offering strong value in the aged Irish category.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Produced in Ireland and crafted in partnership with the historic Old Bushmills Distillery, this release marks a significant evolution for the brand.
Originally founded by Conor McGregor, Proper No. Twelve has moved beyond its celebrity origins—focusing here on age-stated, cask-influenced whiskey with real depth and credibility.
Unlike the core lineup, this is a true single malt, meaning:
- Made from 100% malted barley
- Triple distilled for smoothness
- Aged 13 years in ex-bourbon barrels
- Finished in ruby port casks, adding fruit and softness
The Bushmills pedigree is important—bringing centuries of Irish whiskey-making expertise and a reputation for fruit-forward, elegant single malts.
