He normally can handle drinking his whiskey neat but he had to use a chaser to get down the proper twelve because it was so lackluster. Let's just say, jameson's is the repeat we buy for keeping around for special times and proper twelve took awhile to get through. I refused to help him finish the bottle off. I bought it for him and told him he could finish it himself 😂 took quiet a few months but it's gone and will never spend a dime on it again

I bought Proper 12 alongside The Irishman (similar price point, around $30USD) and I really liked Proper 12 until I had the irishman and tasted how vastly superior it was.

Ok, I’ve always drank Jameson. I like all the Irish whiskeys I also like single malt scotch when I can find a deal. But the good thing about Proper #12, is that I can drink it like ice tea. Literally, it’s so easy to drink, try it neat maybe chase it with a soft drink or tea. It’s extremely drinkable. Proper #12 is what I bring to parties and keep to myself. Frankly it’s so easy to drink I keep checking to see if it’s really 80 proof. It drinks like water. If you want to impress your beer drinker friends, bring a bottle of 12 and down it in cocktail glasses. Beer drinkers tend to choke on whiskey. This is so smooth that you will look like a badass.

Agreed, powers punches above its weight. It has a much more substantial body and texture than other Irish whiskeys in its price range. Wicked fruity dram, like ripe bananas to me

You can’t get a bad bottle of Powers, it’s all great!

I drink Proper Twelve neat. I get the cheap whiskey taste, but I get an overwhelming note of vanilla. Making it taste like I’m drinking candy. Please forgive me for not putting ice in the glass

I bought a bottle of Proper 12 on a whim . I'm normally a Jameson's guy. I tried it straight up unadulterated . I found it sharp an acidic all the way down. So "waste not want not" being a personal motto, I relegated the rest of the bottle do the Irish coffee slot in my bar. A little organic vanilla does wonders.

I drank my bottle of Proper Twelve neat. I didn’t mind it but maybe the lockdown had something to do with it. Cheers!

Proper Twelve is a lesson in marketing, not in making whiskey.

[@stacieh4023]

Correct. They bought all the cheapest barrels from Great Northern, an industry friend said the blender even hated it

[@markiezee6435]

you guys had be going hard, "drink something else". so good

Maybe I have not seen the review in your collection, but I’d like to see a video on Bushmills Single Malt 10 years. I’ve gotten a few bottles over the years, and I find it very very nice. Unfortunately I don’t have the nose or pallet to pick out what flavours I’m getting, but I’d love to know what you all get from it. I did find it different from the bushmills black or original

[@red_mamba]

Honestly it's not as bad as they are making it out to be. I've had it and liked it and I am pretty well versed in whiskeys. They definitely decided that it isn't good before they had any. That much is apparent.

[@Phantom042690]

I agree. It's budget friendly and it's really not that bad.

[@stacieh4023]

I drink Irish whiskey 99% of the time. I really didn’t like it at all personally but it’s definitely got it’s fans. I

[@kanakm3927]

Proper 12 is a decent whiskey, I would prefer it over Jameson any given day.

[@menuer5]

"And when you drink.." "May you drink something else" That killed me

[@geekyhawk325]

I discovered your channel in 2018 while looking for Proper 12 Review, looks like we have come a full circle. I know whiskey aint Good. But the Dude went from collecting welfare in 2013 to Launching his own whisky in 2018. Gotta respect the hustle.
