Social Good Whiskey-Infused Donuts

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey X Dough Joined Forces for Good

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey -- the elevated whiskey brand that pays homage to its founder, Conor Mcgregor’s -- recently joined forces with Dough Doughnuts -- one of NYC's most successful donut purveyors -- to support first responders. The new collaboration includes two whiskey-infused doughnuts that celebrate both National Coffee Day (9/29) and National First Responders Day (10/28).

The Irish Whiskey tapped Dough Doughnuts to create two mouthwatering donuts -- the Proper Irish Coffee Cream-Filled and the Proper Irish Coffee Glazed. The delicious limited-time offerings until National First Responders Day on October 28th.

As part of Proper No. Twelve's ongoing commitment to supporting First Responders, an initiative that begin in 2018 when the brand launched, a portion of proceeds from the Proper Irish Coffee Cream-Filled and the Proper Irish Coffee Glazed will be donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.

Fans can purchase the new donuts online and at Dough’s retail locations throughout New York City.
