Chicken Cock Whiskey Island Rooster Rum Barrel Rye

Brewed in the Bluegrass state, Chicken Cock Whiskey Island Rooster Rum Barrel Rye is a spicy spirit that has candied molasses qualities from rum barrels, and hints of sweet orange peel.

Our Chicken Cock Whiskey Island Rooster Rum Barrel Rye is inspired by a trip to the Caribbean, where roosters announce the coming day. It’s aged in seasoned rum casks for bold molasses and spice profiles to match with our Signature Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey. Sun and sand meets the Bluegrass state.

Get away from it all with our rooster, who’s been soaking up the Caribbean sun and beach life. He's had a taste of rum, but he's still all Bluegrass.

TASTING NOTES
Appearance
Beautiful, rich dark amber in color.

Aroma
An elegant array of spices, pepper, with a hint of rye grassiness and sweet molasses softly touched with oak overtones.

Flavor
A tremendous complexity of spices, vanilla, butterscotch and pepper, beautifully complimented with just enough rum sweetness to complete the full flavor profile.

Finish
Very long and enjoyable, with the rye characteristics predominant, but wonderfully enhanced with a touch of sweet, rich molasses and buttery mouthfeel.
