This whiskey is not your typical grain-only Irish whiskey. It is 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. It is also an affordable and accessible quality at only $24.99 per bottle! Each time you purchase some Proper No. Twelve bottles, you are giving back to the people who need it most. For each case that is sold, $5 are donated to First Responder organizations around the world, up to $1 million are donated every year. The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation became the first $1 million donation recipient in March 2020.

This foundation honors firefighter Stephen Siller who risked his life to save other lives on 9/11. To this day, the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation has spent about $250 million to support first responder families. You can find out more information about the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation on their website at tunnel2towers.org.

Proper No. Twelve donated $100,000 to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation's COVID-19 Heroes Fund in April 2020. This helps out frontline healthcare workers and their families as well as creating the ‘One For All’ T-shirt which raises additional money and awareness. 100% of the price paid goes directly to the fund.
