Kevin Kisner teams up with Kentucky distillery for signature whiskey
Kevin Kisner has been a smash hit in the booth of late, earning rave reviews for his work his work with NBC’s broadcast team. Now he’s poised to take over the barroom as well. The four-time PGA Tour winner and whiskey lover has teamed up with Chicken Cock Whiskey for the release of his new limited-edition Double Oak Kentucky Whiskey.
Following the sold-out 2023 edition of Kiz’s collab with the Bardstown bourbon purveyors, the 2024 installment of his signature whiskey is aged nine years, the first seven in ex-bourbon barrels and the final two in new white oak barrels for added depth and complexity of flavor. Each barrel of the release—containing a mash bill of 80% Corn, 11.5% Rye and 8.5% Malted Barley—was hand-selected by Kisner under the watchful eye of Chicken Cock Master Distiller Gregg Snyder.
“Authenticity and quality are two characteristics I value, which are especially true for Chicken Cock Whiskey. This is why we have again collaborated on this really nice Double Oak single barrel,” says Kisner. “From the authentic brand history to the meticulous attention to detail of its whiskey production, Chicken Cock Whiskey is a real one.”
The 2024 Double Oak Kentucky Whiskey is bottled at a barrel-strength proof of 119.2 for a little extra pop off the tee and can be purchased via Chicken Cock’s website for $149.99.
