Chicken Cock Whiskey

Chicken Cock Whiskey has a long and storied history in the United States. The brand traces its roots back to the mid-19th century. It was first distilled in Paris, Kentucky, in 1856 by the Ripy family, making it one of the oldest bourbon brands in the country.

During Prohibition (1920-1933), the production and sale of alcoholic beverages were prohibited in the United States. However, some distilleries continued to operate under the radar. Chicken Cock Whiskey was one of these brands, and it gained notoriety for being one of the few bourbons available during that time.

The brand faced various challenges over the years, including changes in ownership and interruptions in production. In recent years, Chicken Cock Whiskey has experienced a revival. The brand was resurrected and reintroduced to the market, leveraging its historical significance and the popularity of craft and heritage spirits.
