Chicken Cock Single Barrel Kentucky Bourbon Festival Pick and Biig Proof and Biiiig Flavours

In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, we pop open the gloriously retro bottle of Chicken Cock Single Barrel Bourbon, a 130.8 proof beast we almost didn’t bring home.

We talk through:

• 🧳 The bourbon-buying rule we broke to grab this bottle

• 🥃 Tasting after 10 bourbons — and why it still stood out

• 👃 The surprise “rum and raisin” nose (yeah, we said it)

• 💥 How this high-proof Kentucky straight bourbon held up back in Australia

• 🥲 Bourbon regret bottles vs this absolute gem

This one surprised us — and may have restored some trust in our late-day bottle picks.
