Chicken Cock Whiskey has partnered with California-based premium headwear brand The Ampal Creative to debut an exciting limited edition collaboration. This marks the third product release in The Famous Old Brand’s Reserve Cask Program, which features four one-of-a-kind barrels with like-minded partners and will be sold alongside a limited edition hat designed by The Ampal Creative in collaboration with Chicken Cock Whiskey. The Ampal Creative Reserve Cask bourbon and hat bundle will be available for purchase exclusively on Chicken Cock’s website beginning November 1st. The two brands united on their passion for making things the way they used to, focusing on quality, craftsmanship, and a dedication to producing the best of the best in the USA.
The Ampal Creative’s team tasted Chicken Cock Whiskey’s finest eight-year-aged bourbon barrels, hand selected by the storied whiskey brand’s Master Distiller Gregg Snyder. They chose the distinct small batch bourbon that spoke to them the most, which has a mash bill of 80% Corn, 11.5% Rye and 8.5% Malted Barley and comes in a bottle with branding designed by both teams – which is reflected in the hat that The Ampal Creative created for this exclusive collaboration. Only 156 bottles of the one-of-a-kind, 121.6-proof bourbon are on the market.
“It was an easy decision to work with Chicken Cock,” says Andrew Potash, Creative Director and Owner of The Ampal Creative. “It can be distilled down to a dedication to quality over quantity, but the parallels run a lot deeper than that. In this day of disposable, trend-driven consumerism, it’s rare to find another company that truly cares about its product and refuses to cut corners. We hand-pick all of our materials, and Chicken Cock’s Master Distiller hand-picks all the barrels used to age the whiskey. It’s an intangible detail on paper that makes a huge difference in the final experience and enjoyment our customers get out of our products. That’s why we chose to use a barrel on the special hats to release with the bottles; it’s where the bourbon ‘magic’ happens along its 12-year journey.”
The bundle, which includes Chicken Cock’s limited edition bourbon and The Ampal Creative’s hat, is available for purchase exclusively at chickencockwhiskey.com for $189.99.
