Episode Synopsis

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.
