Rich texture and well rounded. Light flavor from the cherry wood with a slightly tart, slightly sweet spice note.

Introducing Nankai Gold, a premium blended Shochu meticulously crafted on Amami Island, Japan. This exceptional spirit is the result of a harmonious blend of matured and cask-aged kokuto, also known as "black sugar," Shochu from our renowned distillery. With an elegant smoothness, Nankai Gold delights the senses with its rich layers of fruity, floral, and malty aromas, complemented by subtle hints of raisins, chocolates, and honey. Enjoy the rarity and exquisiteness of this drink either neat or on the rocks.

Nankai Gold has earned the highest accolades, winning the prestigious Master Medal in the shochu category. This 43% ABV blend combines artisan black sugar Shochus, distilled from a blend of black sugar (80%) and rice (20%), carefully produced only on Amami Island. The production process involves handcrafting each Shochu from just four natural ingredients: sugarcane, rice, koji yeast, and water. A portion of the blend undergoes vacuum distillation to achieve a smooth and delicious finish, thanks to the unique qualities of the vacuum stills.

Our skilled artisans then age the select Shochus for up to 5 years in American white oak and French Limousin casks before blending them into Nankai Gold. The result is an extraordinary and complex drinking experience that demands attention and appreciation. Embracing tradition, Nankai Gold is a handcrafted, cask-aged Shochu, a beloved Japanese distilled spirit. It sets itself apart from whiskey through the use of "koji" in the fermentation process and single-distillation, which preserves the sumptuous flavors and aromas of the source grain.

For lovers of Japanese whiskeys, Nankai Gold offers a fascinating fusion of the beauty of Shochu and whiskey-making, all elegantly combined within this stunning bottle.

For a quarter of a century, casks of this rare expression of Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky breathed the invigorating sea air of the Caithness coast. Sheltered from a fast-changing world by the darkened calm of a distillery warehouse, the spirit mellowed at its own steady pace, echoing the reassuring rhythm of its hometown port. Aged firstly in American oak, its spicy sweetness was later granted depth and colour by casks of Spanish oak. Elegant and charismatic, this wonderful whisky embodies both Wick’s spirit of endurance and Pulteney Distillery’s devotion to its craft.

James A. Miller, the founder of Chicken Cock Whiskey, took so much pride in his beloved chickens and his exceptional whiskey it led him to name his whiskey "Chicken Cock.” To this day we continue to take pride in the beautiful roosters that adorn our exceptional whiskey. As such, the fourth edition of Chicken Cock’s limited annual tin release is guided by a like-minded pride in roosters and good whiskey. The Onagadori rooster and Mizunara Oak from Japan inspired this year’s release.
The Onagadori rooster is not only stunning but also incredibly rare, with its distinctive long tail. Similarly, Mizunara oak is renowned for its rarity and difficulty coopering, taking up to two centuries to mature before it can be used to make whiskey barrels. It’s likely the Mizunara oak trees used in this batch were already growing when Miller began making whiskey in the 1800s.

Chicken Cock Whiskey’s Mizunara is our award-winning Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, enhanced by the unique character of first use Mizunara Japanese Oak finishing. Limited to only 10 barrels of total production.

A proprietary blend of corn, rye and barley.

Since the release of Old Forester Rye in 2019, fans of the brand have been clamoring to try it at barrel strength, and weʼre excited to deliver. For the first time in the brandʼs 150 year history, Old Forester is elated to present this new expression, unfiltered, as a single barrel at barrel strength. As such, each barrel will have it’s own unique tasting notes and various proofs – but all distinctly Old Forester Rye. This expression, although extremely limited, will be available nationwide though not through Old Foresterʼs private By the Barrel program.

• TASTE: Full-bodied with a base of ripe orchard fruit, subtle cinnamon stick, dried dill, and hazelnut.

Maker Notes

CALI Whiskey is a unique California twist on a classic American sipping whiskey.   CALI is smoother than a frontier whiskey, but more complex and flavorful than a traditional Kentucky bourbon.   So pour a glass to sip while reading a good book or laughing with friends. Flavor is all about aroma and running a distillery is really about how to use raw high proof alcohol to pull the aromas and flavors out of cool stuff.  The flavors of CALI Whiskey arise organically from the interaction of the rich corn mash bourbon and spicy rye, mellowed by clean oak and then finished with our own signature blends of herbs, spices and botanicals. CALI starts with pure whiskey front notes and ends with subtle, complex, slightly sweet spice notes – just enough to have it finish with a delicious complexity.

Sable is born from a shared passion for storytelling and whiskey-making. Each sip celebrates friendship, heritage, and the spirit of camaraderie.

75% CORN | 21% RYE | 4% MALTED BARLEY

Architecture is defined as the art or practice of designing and constructing buildings.  Using those same principles, we wanted to build new and distinct flavor profiles the same way an Architect creates new innovative structures.   

 Working in collaboration with Tonnellerie Radoux of France, the market leader in oak barrel manufacturing and innovation, we use French oak staves and their state-of-the-art OakScan process to build a truly precise flavor profile within every bottle.   After all, the best architecture leaves no room for error.

Batch Proof is a celebration of Woodford Reserve’s proprietary process – blending barrels into a batch and then bottling the whiskey at its actual proof, straight from the barrel. Batch Proof is crafted using the same grain bill and process as Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon. The 2023 edition is 124.7 Proof.

Batch Proof, however, takes Woodford Reserve’s trademark flavor range of sweet vanilla and toasted oak to a whole new level offering consumers the privilege of tasting Woodford Reserve in its purest form (and not the standard 90.4 for which Woodford is known).

TASTING NOTES

Appearance: The color is reminiscent of burnt orange.

Aroma: Upon nosing, delightful scents of nutty toasted almond, cherry, and overripe banana are accompanied by subtle oak notes complemented by a sprinkle of citrus zest, which gradually transforms into a lively pepper aroma.

Taste: The palate reveals a rich tapestry of flavors, including peppery baking spice, cardamom, and pine.

Finish: The experience concludes with a concise and satisfying finish, characterized by notes of leather, cedar, and dry vanilla.
