Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey St. Patrick’s Day Cocktail Recipes

Proper No. Twelve has quickly become a standout brand – surging OVER 200% last year  – becoming the fastest-growing Irish Whiskey – brands over 10,000 cases in Nielsen and NABCA. Proper No. Twelve (@properwhiskey) also has the highest social media following of any wine, spirit or champagne brand. 

This brand is proper in every way, and here’s some insight as to why:

• The liquid. It isn’t your typical grain-only Irish whiskey – it’s a blend of golden grain and single malt resulting in a smooth and approachable taste with hints of vanilla, honey-like sweetness, and toasted wood.
• Affordable quality. At $24.99 per bottle, it’s accessible.
• Proper No. Twelve gives back. For each case sold, $5 is donated to First Responder organizations worldwide, up to $1 million annually.
