Basil Hayden's 10 Year Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

This limited-edition rye, new for 2020, is the longest-aged rye to be released under the Basil Hayden label. It also happens to be a lower proof (80) than most ryes with a double-digit age statement. In terms of scent and taste, the lower proof translates to mellower oak, caramel, vanilla, and tobacco notes than other aged ryes, along with a gentle cinnamon spice kick on the finish. All of the depth and complexity of a well-aged whiskey without the throat burn of a higher-proof rye: this might just be your new favorite sipper.
