Fighting Cock Bourbon is a brand of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey produced in Bardstown, Kentucky by Heaven Hill Distilleries, Inc. It is sold in 16 oz (1 pint), 750ml, and 1-liter glass bottles. The mash bill for Fighting Cock Bourbon includes corn, rye and wheat, and the product is aged for six years to, as the manufacturer puts it, "smooth out the feathers real well". It is bottled at 103 proof (51.5% alcohol by volume). Touted by its manufacturer as “The bad boy of Bourbon”, it has a little heat to it as it goes down. Its manufacturer claims that, through its award-winning packaging and point-of-sale presentation that includes a unique and irreverent marketing campaign, Fighting Cock appeals to both male Gen X-ers and serious Bourbon lovers alike.
