About Chicken Cock....
In 1856, James A. Miller built a distillery and started making Chicken Cock Whiskey in Paris, Kentucky. After his death, Miller left the business to a trusted distillery clerk, George G. White, who made Chicken Cock into the legend it became.
In 2011, Chicken Cock's fortunes changed when spirits entrepreneur Matti Anttila discovered the brand in the Oscar Getz Museum while researching the early days of distillation in the U.S. With Chicken Cock simply being a faded memory of the past at that time, Anttila decided that the Famous Old Brand was worthy of a rebirth. Until the brand could produce its own distillate, Anttila sourced some of the best aged bourbon he could find that was worthy of the Chicken Cock label. Through vast historical research and the acquiring of the brand's relics throughout its history, this was the beginning of the revival of the award-winning brand's new lease on life.
The Chicken Cock Whiskey of today holds the same standards of quality and craftsmanship that was set forth originally by James A. Miller in 1856. From the curated selection of each white oak log that we harvest from the rolling hills and valleys of West Virginia that our barrels are made from, to our rigorous specifications on air drying, toasting, and charring levels, to the strategic placement of those barrels within the rickhouses, each bottle of Chicken Cock Whiskey holds inside of it both our long legacy and the fruits of our labor; delicious Kentucky whiskey.
In 2017, the first proper Kentucky bourbon to be released under the Chicken Cock label in over 60 years was our 160th Anniversary release; an 8-year old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. A nod to the brand's historic past, it came bottled in a timeless Prohibition-era medicinal apothecary replica bottle; the same one we use for a variety of our expressions today. This release took home a gold medal at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition, platinum medal at the consumer-judged 2017 SIP Awards, and scored 94 points at the 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge and cemented Chicken Cock Whiskey in its rightful place as the renowned whiskey brand it had once been.
