Basil Hayden’s is launching a 10-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey as a special edition collector’s bottle. Bottled at 80 proof, Basil Hayden’s latest spirit is a light but full-flavored rye with the kind of spicy finish that you’d expect from a good rye whiskey.
The golden-hued spirit smells like sweet vanilla, oak and fruit, and look for spice, oak, caramel, cinnamon and tobacco flavor notes on the palette.
