JERSEY CITY, N.J. (May 13, 2025) — Proper No. Twelve
®
Irish Whiskey, the no. three Irish
whiskey brand in the United States,
1
is 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.
