Distilled, aged, and bottled in Kentucky, Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey has a rich, elegant mahogany hue; a nose which balances oak tones with sweet notes of dried fruit, caramel, and vanilla; and a palate that opens with soft tannins. A creamy, almost buttery mouthfeel is complemented by butterscotch notes and toasted oak, resolving with a vanilla finish. At 90 proof, there is a slight, welcome bourbon heat. The bourbon is bottled in a replica of the Prohibition-era Chicken Cock bottle.

The first Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Rye in over 70 years is now available for purchase. Distilled, aged, and bottled in Kentucky, Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey has a rich caramel color with a hue of dark orange. 

Chanticleer celebrates the long time French-American friendship dating back to the 1700's and to Paris, Kentucky where Chicken Cock was founded in 1856. Sealed in a prohibition era collectible tin, this Kentucky Straight Bourbon finished in fine French Cognac casks has vibrant notes of ripened peaches with tannic bursts of vanilla and cherry. This highly limited release will never be produced again!

Originally established in Paris, Kentucky in 1856, Chicken Cock was forced to move production up to Canada during Prohibition. The Canadian Rye whiskey produced during that period was then smuggled back into the U.S. in tin cans, earning the brand the nickname, “The whiskey in a tin can."

Age and wood.  You can't have great whiskey without great wood. That is why we aged our 8-year-old whiskey in American oak barrels twice. This process allows us to extract all of the great flavor within the oak to create a robust and interesting sipper. Double the wood, double the flavor.

Island Rooster is a limited edition Kentucky Straight Rye finished in rum barrels. Inspired by a trip to the Caribbean, where roosters announce the coming day, we decided to finish 25 barrels of our Signature Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey in Caribbean rum casks. The result is a relaxing blend of spicy notes from the rye with candied molasses notes from the rum barrels. Sun and sand meets the Bluegrass state. Cheers!

Our take on a classic American hero: bourbon. Putting taste above all else, this versatile, rule-breaking yet smooth-drinking bourbon has a sly hint of rye that always delivers the spice. Pairing its fragrant rye kick and sweet opulence of corn makes for the perfect sipping, high-rye bourbon and a foolproof foundation for any

classic cocktail.

Nose: Oak, orange & butterscotch

Taste: Smoke, caramel & golden raisin Finish: Long, peppery finish with notes of tobacco

Rewriting whiskey history one sip at a time. Putting taste above all else, this bold flavored, yet always inviting creation has the spice of a high-rye mash bill with a dash of sweetness. Built on rich layers of spices and citrus, it’s mellow, smooth and well-balanced. It’ll stand its ground mixed in craft cocktails, and dyed-in-the-wool rye drinkers love it straight up.

Nose: Nutmeg, vanilla & sherry

Taste: Oak, sorghum & plum

Finish: Long, peppery finish with hints of dried fig

For Virgil Kaine’s eighth creation, we decided to kick it up a notch — or eight. Named for the final notch in the throttle of a diesel train, this cask-finished bourbon was aged for 5 years in new, charred-oak barrels from Gainesville Cooperate and finished in toasted barrels that were delicately smoked with vanilla beans to enhance the natural sweetness found in oak. If you have been waiting for the perfect silky bourbon, get it now while you still can!

Starting with our full-bodied bourbon whiskey, we macerate Oregon Dark Cherries, vanilla and orange to create a perfectly infused bourbon that is easy to sip. With a rich cherry flavor on the front and a smooth vanilla finish, it’s delicious on its own or can be enjoyed in a number of classic whiskey cocktails.

Our original spirit has its own original spirit. This small batch creation puts a fresh twist on classic Southern bourbon. Starting with our full-bodied Lowcountry libation, we add a touch of heirloom ginger harvested just thirty miles from where it’s bottled. A single sip reveals a hint of vanilla with an ultra-smooth, well-balanced taste and sweet finish only found south of the Mason-Dixon Line.

Playing off the sweet, nutty notes of the whiskey, this full-bodied bourbon is infused with locally sourced green tea and honey. Each sip reveals an unmistakable and well-balanced taste. With notes of lemon and mint, this refreshing, herbal spirit is ready to bring out the complexity in any whiskey cocktail.
