Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey Expands Portfolio With Its First Single Malt Whiskey


Proper No. Twelve®Irish Whiskey, the no. three Irish whiskey brand in the United States,1is raising the bar—and the age statement—with the launch of its first-ever limited-edition release: Proper No. Twelve 13-Year-Old Single Malt. Crafted at the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery, this small-batch expression marks an exciting evolution for the brand, delivering a richer, more complex take on the signature smoothness that Proper is known for.

Bottled at 86 proof and crafted from 100% malted barley, this 13-Year-Old Single Malt is aged in a marriage of American Oak first-fill Bourbon casks and European Oak second-fill Ruby Port casks. This allows for deep flavor extraction from both casks — with the Bourbon casks imparting sweetness, vanilla, and warm spice and the Ruby Port casks gradually layering in nuanced notes of ripe fruit, gentle tannins, and a touch of elegance — resulting in a well-rounded and complex final product.

“The release of our 13-Year-Old Single Malt marks a major milestone in Proper No. Twelve’s journey, as the brand launches its first aged single malt whiskey,” said Lander Otegui, Executive Vice President of Marketing for Proximo Spirits. “This 13-Year-Old Single Malt is a more refined expression that still holds true to our roots — bold, accessible, and built for those who appreciate character. It’s a celebration of the exciting future ahead as we continue to expand the brand’s Irish whiskey offerings and disruptor approach to the category.” This limited-time offering is now available for purchase at select retailers in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Tennessee, Texas, and Arizona for an SRP of $59.99.
