Unfortunately, we can't ship Basil Hayden's Kentucky Straight Bourbon to the United States at the moment, but we've got some friends who can.
Basil Hayden's Bourbon dates back to 1796, when master distiller Basil Hayden used a traditional corn base, but mixed in small grains with the mash. A Kentucky straight bourbon with plenty of rye at its core - plenty spicy, well balanced with herbal notes of peppermint and a touch of fruit.
Nose: Cracked black pepper, rye, and oaky spice. Hints of green pepper, lemon peels, and creamy, zesty lemon curd.
Palate: Rice Krispies, toasted cereal progressing to popcorn with gentle marshmallow, custard cream sweetness.
Finish: Toasty popcorn with lashings of butter!

This is a very light and smooth bourbon that, on the sweeter palate, is very easy to drink. Long term whisky fans many find it less interesting. Recommended as a good cocktail spirit that avoids the need for additional sweeteners such as gimme syrup and vermouth. #freesample

A beautiful bottle, perfect for a gift. The taste is intense but also refined. Perfect for drinks but also to drink with ice cubes. I recommend. It will stay with me for a long time

Very good bourbon, with an exceptionally smooth taste when drank on its own. Works well as a mixer for cocktails too, with a deep but not overpowering flavour. Would recommend.
Initially upon tasting, I found this to be smooth albeit too sweet. However, I persevered and after a while more I found it to have a bit more depth than the initial taste which was good. My preference is to have this neat with a single cube of ice as I found that with a mixer it lost the subtleties of the flavour. It's nice and easy drinking so I don't think you'll be disappointed.

A nice bourbon but a little rough on the palette and not as smooth as I'd like. The bottle was well presented and the added embossed metal collar gives it that extra touch of class. It is an acquired taste so may not suit all.
This was the first time I had tried this brand of whiskey and I certainly wasn't disappointed. It was great served over ice and very enjoyable as a longer drink served with coke. It is smooth and warming. I will definitely be buying it again.

Hadn’t tried this brand before and found it very smooth. Really lovely flavour with mixer or without. Would definitely go on to purchase this so very happy to have tried it.
It has a smooth taste and pairs well with a mixer or just straight. Not too sweet and has a round flavour. I'd definitely try it again and drink with friends.
A great aroma and once a big chunk of ice is added to open it up, its silky smooth. Tried with ginger ale - sweet and smooth taste.
perfectly drinkable but to my taste rather one dimensional, if you want a whiskey with character this is not the best option for you
