The nose is sherry-forward with nutty cashew and cinnamon spice. Tasting notes include brown sugar, maple, gingerbread, graham cracker, light baking spice, and dried fruit with a caramel finish.
Maple, dark chocolate, baked cherry, and toasted oak create a captivating, complex aroma. The palate presents rye spice with luscious oak undertones that lead to a luxurious, long-lasting finish.
Layers of baked strawberry, plum, and roasted nuts are highlighted by cinnamon and cocoa. A full-bodied palate of caramel and fig leads to an exquisite, lightly tannic balance of oak, spice, and blackberry.
Baked pear with nutmeg, cinnamon, and sage lays on toffee, brown sugar, and almond. On the palate, vanilla bean, rich oak, and golden raisin combine to create an outstanding finish of refined flavor.
Chicken Cock Red Stave Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, finished in Petite Sirah wine barrels, offers a unique flavor profile. It features a blend of traditional bourbon notes with the rich, fruity influence of the red wine.
At 122.6 proof (ABV 61.3%), this spirit reveals its fullest character when savored neat after 15–20 minutes of rest. A few drops of water or a pour over ice invite new layers to unfold, offering a deeper exploration with every sip.
