Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Description
Tracing its roots back to 1856 in Paris, Kentucky, Chicken Cock Bourbon was a name to be reckoned with. Its fame soared during Prohibition when the brand audaciously moved production to Canada, packaging their spirits in tin cans to outsmart the law. However, the 1950s saw the distillery succumb to flames. The brand's revival came in 2012, thanks to the foresight of Matti Anttila of Grain & Spirits. By 2017, a revitalized line of Whiskey graced the market, and to meet its surging demand, a partnership was struck with the esteemed Bardstown Bourbon Co. in 2018.

Distilled, aged, and bottled with pride in Kentucky, Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey stands out with its elegant mahogany hue.

As it descends, it transforms into a creamy, buttery delight with hints of butterscotch and a vanilla wafer finish. This full-bodied, 90-proof spirit ensures a warmth that testifies to its authenticity.
