Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 45%

Price: 60 Issue: Spring 2020 Reviewer: Susannah Skiver Barton Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

Banana peel, pencil shavings, florist's shop, and rose garden lined with herb beds on the nose. Oak takes the lead on the palate, but is tempered by lemon and orange zest, sweet black licorice, chocolate, peanuts, and popcorn. Crushed peanuts, milk chocolate, and pencil shavings persist on the finish, although it's fairly short.
