Tasting Notes:

Appearance: Mahogany-copper with extremely slow and thin legs.

Nose: Plum, peach, leather, black cherry, vanilla, and oak.

Palate: Stone fruit, mixed nuts, raisins, spicy cinnamon. Rich & well integrated.

Finish: Blackcurrant, dry oak, vanilla extract, and leather. Long finish.

The aftertaste evolves beautifully the longer you let the whiskey evaporate off your palate. There is a warming of the chest without burning, and a lovely profile sitting on the back of the throat.

Like other recent Chicken Cock bottlings, Chanticleer is sealed in a collectible commemorative tin, this one celebrating the longstanding partnership between France and the U.S.; the tins, by the way, are designed to evoke Prohibition-era booze smuggling containers. Now you know.
