Chicken Cock American Heritage Bourbon Whisky 45% ABV 0.7l online kaufen

Chicken Cock American Heritage Bourbon Whisky builds on the legacy of one of the most historic brands in American whisky history. The origins of Chicken Cock Whisky date back to 1856. The brand gained particular renown during the American Prohibition era, when Chicken Cock was served in legendary speakeasies. Its connection to the famous Cotton Club in Harlem is particularly well documented, where the whisky enjoyed particular popularity during that period. Today, the brand draws on this historical heritage and combines it with a classic American bourbon style. The name ‘American Heritage’ deliberately emphasises the connection to the brand’s long history and to traditional American whisky culture.

With an alcohol content of 45 per cent or 90 proof, Chicken Cock American Heritage Bourbon has plenty of body, whilst remaining balanced and approachable in character. Typical bourbon notes such as maize, vanilla, caramel and oak take centre stage, complemented by baking spices and subtle hints of dried fruit. The 0.7-litre bottle is therefore aimed both at lovers of classic American bourbon whiskies and at connoisseurs who wish to discover a brand with a rich historical background. The combination of Chicken Cock Heritage, 90 proof and classic bourbon characteristics also makes this bottling a versatile choice for enjoying neat or in classic whisky cocktails.

Tasting Note

Colour: Saffron with warm golden highlights.

Nose: Vanilla, caramel and sweet maize, accompanied by light oaky notes and a hint of aromatic baking spices.

Chicken Cock American Heritage Bourbon Whisky is best enjoyed neat at around 18–20 °C, over a large ice cube or with a few drops of still water. Culinary pairings such as roasted pecans, BBQ dishes, mature Cheddar or desserts featuring caramel and vanilla complement its classic bourbon profile very well. Dark chocolate also complements the combination of caramel, oak and spices effectively. For cocktails, this bourbon is particularly well-suited to classics such as the Old Fashioned, the Whisky Sour or the Manhattan.
