Proper Twelve Irish Apple (750Ml)

Proper No. Twelve Irish Apple takes the brand’s Irish whiskey and adds a crisp apple flavor. The base is a blend of grain and single malt whiskey. It is triple distilled for a smooth, easy style. Conor McGregor founded Proper No. Twelve with Audie Attar and Ken Austin. It is a young brand with a modern take on an old craft. The apple version reached shelves across the US in early 2023.

The color is golden amber. On the nose you get sweet cider, light caramel, oak and browned butter. The palate brings cooked apples and honey, balanced by oak and crisp green apple peel. The finish starts bright with tart Granny Smith apple. It then softens into cider, brown sugar and a smooth whiskey close.

At 70 proof, this is a gentle pour. Try it neat or on the rocks first. It also makes an easy highball with ginger ale. On a cold night, stir it into hot apple cider.

Pair a glass with apple pie or a sharp cheddar. If you are new to Irish whiskey, the fruit makes a friendly first step. Fans of flavored whiskey will find it light and fun to mix.
