MIZUNARA

JAPANESE OAK

The time it takes to grow, the rarity of the oak, the thoughtful selection process, and the care taken in tasting and resting our Mizunara has resulted in one of the richest, smoothest, and unique tasting whiskeys we've ever produced.

750ML | 52.5% ABV | 105 proof

International Review of Spirits

Good spirits never go out of style.

During the 1920's, whiskey was a staple of prohibition-era speakeasies like the Cotton Club in Harlem, NY; a time when Chicken Cock was smuggled across the Canadian border in tin cans, earning it the nickname of "the whiskey in a tin can". Unfortunately, in conjunction with quality standards going down, many old bourbon brands like Chicken Cock lost their former luster to consumers by the 1950's, causing the brand to fade out of existence until its revival in 2012.

"This whiskey is more than a gimmicky-sounding name. It’s an authentic throwback brand--"
