Raise a glass to something special with Basil Hayden Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Our founder, Booker Noe, loved bourbon. He loved the craft of it, the character of it, the “pour me another one and tell me a story” of it. He loved what it could mean and all the things it could be. But most of all he loved the way it tasted. With Basil Hayden, he created the kind of whiskey he loved; spicy yet smooth, both rich and sweet. A high-rye Kentucky straight bourbon with a refined flavor profile that rewards a second glass. Basil Hayden Bourbon is often shared and always savored. So, in true Kentucky style, let’s get straight to the good stuff.
