Chicken Cock Mizunara Fourh Edition Japanese Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon 750 ML

Chicken Cock Mizunara Fourth Edition is a Kentucky straight bourbon finished with Japanese Mizunara oak influence, a rare wood not typically used in American whiskey production. It's bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV). Mizunara oak is known for imparting distinctive incense, sandalwood, and coconut notes alongside the usual bourbon caramel and vanilla, giving this release a flavor profile that stands apart from a standard Kentucky straight bourbon. Expect a layered nose, a smooth, moderately spiced palate, and a long finish carrying that characteristic Mizunara character through to the end. It's a good pick for a bourbon drinker who's already tried the standard oak-finished releases and wants something more unusual to compare against.

How to drink Chicken Cock Mizunara Fourth Edition

Neat is the way to actually taste the Mizunara oak's sandalwood and incense notes — ice or a heavy mixer will bury them. One large cube at most if you want it slightly cooler.
