A luxurious nose chock full of ripe red stone fruit, vanilla bean, nutmeg, and clove. Superbly full and round in the mouth, where subtle underlying flavors of port help to highlight spicy cinnamon and clove flavors. Memorable and unique. Would make for a sublime Manhattan!

The first permanent addition to the Basil Hayden's portfolio mingles Kentucky straight rye with Canadian rye, plus a splash of Port-style wine from California. All this yields a warming whiskey that leads with caramel and spice on nose and palate, finishing with a hint of cocoa and a distinctly juicy, almost tart cherry note. Sip or mix.

Basil Hayden’s Rye Whiskey, according to those behind it, is a Kentucky straight rye whiskey that’s been influenced by a so-called unique, re-barreled rye. More specifically, this re-barreled rye begins life as a 4-year-old traditional rye, which is then dumped from its aging barrels and further aged an additional seven years in newly charred quarter cask oak barrels. A portion of it is then blended with traditional Kentucky straight rye whiskey to craft the final product.

Overview

Country: United States

Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
