Product Info
Basil Hayden 10 Year Old Bourbon follows the signature high-proof rye bourbon recipe beloved by Basil Hayden fans, but with extended maturation in oak barrels, achieving even greater complexity and depth. This additional maturation results in a distinctive whiskey with intense oak notes, charred wood, and vanilla. Basil Hayden's signature spiciness perfectly balances the sweetness of caramel and wood, creating a memorable experience for both enthusiasts and newcomers. Enjoyed neat or on the rocks, the sweet caramel and vanilla notes developed over the 10 years in newly charred American oak barrels stand out, complementing the distinctive spiciness of Basil Hayden's high-proof rye mash bill. The whiskey's light texture allows for a refined, refined palate without the harsh burn associated with higher-proof whiskies.
