Basil Hayden
Golden Rye

Basil Hayden Golden Rye is a unique and approachable whiskey that brings together the vibrant spice of Canadian rye and the smooth sweetness of California port wine. This innovative blend creates a remarkably balanced and flavorful sipping experience, offering a fresh take on traditional rye whiskey.

The nose opens with inviting aromas of honey, dried fruit, and soft vanilla, followed by notes of ripe apricot and baking spices. On the palate, delicate rye spice mingles with flavors of golden raisins, caramel, orchard fruit, and subtle oak, while the port influence adds layers of richness and sweetness without overwhelming the whiskey's character. The finish is smooth, elegant, and lightly fruity, with lingering notes of honey and gentle spice.

Bottled at an easy-drinking 80 proof, Basil Hayden Golden Rye is perfect for whiskey enthusiasts seeking a lighter, fruit-forward rye or anyone looking to explore a distinctive and approachable whiskey style.
