Proper Twelve Irish Whiskey - Crafted with Precision
Explore the meticulous craftsmanship behind Proper Twelve Irish Whiskey, a true masterpiece born from a legacy of dedication and expertise. Each step in the process contributes to the exceptional quality that defines this renowned spirit.
1. Milling & Mashing
The journey begins with the finest barley, carefully steeped, germinated, and gently air-dried. Utilizing a traditional roller mill, the malt barley transforms into a fine grist, setting the foundation for what's to come.
2. Fermentation
Following the mashing stage, the natural fermentation process unfolds, giving rise to the wash – essentially a beer with over 8% alcohol. This critical phase establishes the richness for which Proper Twelve is celebrated.
3. Distillation
Crafted through the traditional triple distillation method using copper pot stills, Proper Twelve's character is meticulously refined. Successive distillations, including a second distillation with a low wine still and a third distillation in the spirit still, elevate the spirit to a cut above 80% alcohol, capturing the true essence of the heart of the spirit.
4. Maturation
Our coopers, with an eye for quality, hand-select the finest former bourbon barrels for the maturation process. Proper Twelve ages gracefully within these barrels, developing flavors of vanilla, honey, and toasted wood over the years, creating a whiskey of unparalleled depth.
5. Blending
At the heart of Proper No. Twelve lies the art of blending. Our Master Distiller carefully selects casks that embody the rich character necessary to craft Proper No. Twelve Irish Apple – an award-winning blend of Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey with crisp and fresh notes of Irish Apple.
