Chicken Cock 10-Year-Old Double Barrel Bourbon, distilled by MGP Ingredients and produced by Chicken Cock Distilleries, comes from a mash bill of 70% corn, 21% rye and 9% malted barley. The bourbon aged 10 years in charred barrels with a #4 char level and is bottled at 52% ABV. The suggested retail price is $250.
All told, it’s got plenty of similarities with Double Oak 8, but it’s unique enough to merit a side by side comparison, should you unearth a bottle of each.
A new burst of flavors on the palate reveals cocoa powder, spice cake, coconut, creamy chocolate, cinnamon, and chili pepper. A long finish of rich chocolate, almond, and a delicate hint of blackberry.
