Basil Hayden Kentucky Bourbon

This style of bourbon was inspired by 1792 whiskey pioneer Meredith Basil Hayden, Sr., a rye farmer from Maryland who moved to Kentucky and began distilling. He chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye, and Booker set out to create a similar high-rye mash bill that would offer the same refined, approachable taste profile.

Basil Hayden lightness and approachability is the perfect complement to a great night. This bourbon is artfully aged to be spicy yet smooth, both rich and sweet.
