The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
Fighting Cock is a 6-year-old, 103-proof bourbon produced at Heaven Hill Distillery, known among bourbon fans as a serious, no-nonsense pour that punches above its price point. The extra age and proof give it real depth compared to many entry-level bourbons.
On the nose, rye spice comes through clearly, backed by soft caramel and toasted oak. The palate follows with bold spice and sweetness in balance, finishing warm and slightly peppery thanks to its higher proof. It's a bourbon that rewards drinkers who like a bit more intensity in the glass.
Best enjoyed neat or on the rocks to let its spice and proof shine, Fighting Cock also makes a robust base for an Old Fashioned that can stand up to bold garnishes. Pair it with spicy barbecue or a sharp aged cheddar.

Ways To Pour It
Neat
Served on its own in a rocks glass, letting the full character come through exactly as crafted.
On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
