Description
This marks the first time Basil Hayden has ever offered a rye whiskey with this distinguished of an age statement, and builds off the continued success of Basil Hayden 10-Year-Old Bourbon and its distinctive high-rye recipe. The mashbill features a slightly spicy, yet approachable, rye resulting in an elegantly complex taste profile and a golden honey hue. Bottled at 80 proof, this light, yet full-flavored, rye is sure to please any palate. Serving neat, with a drop of water, or on-the-rocks opens up all of the flavors that were developed from ten years of aging, such as spice, oak, caramel, and tobacco. At 80 proof, this whiskey is light enough to examine on the palate without the burn associated with higher-proof whiskeys.
