Proper 12 Description
Our Founder and his team searched for a place and people that shared the same passion for Ireland and its whiskey. He found this at the oldest whiskey distillery on the Isle of Ireland and with his master distiller created a unique and special blend.
OUR FOUNDER & MASTER DISTILLER Through much trial and error, they worked together to create a blend of sweet Irish grain and single malt Irish whiskey. The result, a smooth balanced whiskey with hints of vanilla, honey-like sweetness and toasted wood.
ONE FOR ALL First responders are the unsung heroes who act with valor and answer the call of duty every day for those in need. Proper No. Twelve is donating $5 for each case sold to local first responder organizations around the world, up to $1M annually.
Proper No. Twelve's Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey is an ultra smooth blend of fine grain and single malt with hints of vanilla, honey and toasted wood.
OUR CRAFT
MILLING & MASHING The finest barley is steeped, germinated and gently air dried. Using a traditional roller mill, the malt barley is then turned into a fine grist.
FERMENTATION After mashing, the natural fermentation process produces the wash (essentially beer) with over 8% alcohol.
DISTILLATION The traditional triple distillation method uses copper pot stills, which create and fine-tune the proper character. After the first distillation, the strength of the spirit is increased through a second distillation with a low wine still. A third distillation in the spirit still, creates a cut above 80% alcohol. This captures the heart of the spirit.
MATURATION Our coopers hand-select the finest former bourbon barrels in which to age our proper whiskey. Our spirit slowly ages developing through the years flavors of vanilla, honey and toasted wood.
BLENDING The blending of sweet Irish grain spirit and single malt Irish whiskey lies at the heart of Proper No. Twelve. Our Master Distiller selects casks that hold the rich character needed to craft Proper No. Twelve Whiskey.
