Seeing Larry Leo's post about Conor McGregor's Irish whiskey reminded me that I had bought a bottle of "Proper Twelve" a while back, it wasn't very good. I debated throwing it out, but eventually finished it.

Are any celebrity owned alcohol's actually any good? Off the top of my head here's a few others that I know of:

Aviation Gin - Ryan Reynolds
Cabo Wabo Tequila - Sammy Hagar
Casamigos Tequila - George Clooney

I'm sure there are more

I liked Ciroc before P Diddy got aligned with them and the price doubled.

I liked Proper Twelve. Not a huge irish whiskey drinker though.

Clooney is out of Casamigos for what it’s worth. I’ve never had it regardless but people says it’s more expensive now and not as good.

George Strait is still involved in Codigo I believe. Never had it either though.

Heaven's Door- Bob Dylan
Blackened- Metallica

Both are solid.

Belfour Bourbon is pretty decent. Eddie Belfour aka Eddie the Eagle was an NHL goaltender, multiple time allstar, won the best goalie trophy one year, won the Stanley cup with Dallas Stars.

Michael Jordan has a tequila now as well. I haven't tried it yet.

I like Casamigos and Aviation.

I thought Proper Twelve was alright. I couldn't tell much difference from it and Jameson though.

I like Casamigos (it’s actually what got me into drinking Tequila) but tequila purists think it’s crap because it’s infused with vanilla and other additives.

I'm a fan of Casamigos and it's gotten decent reviews. It's surprisingly tough to find around town (I remember Total Wine not having any, it's spotty to find at Calandro's but Albertsons on Government has a shitload under lock and key).
The funny thing is I used to see a Casamigos trucks all over town with a picture of George Clooney and Randy Gerber (cindy Crawford's husband). It's good to see two guys who have so little going for them do alright in the liquor biz.

I rarely see the BR total wine not have casamigos. I never get it because I'm not a fan of all the vanilla additives they put in it, but it's always on the shelf there when I go

Kenny Chesney Spiced Rum (can’t remember the name) is goodish, not great. I bought some without knowing it was his brand.
