- Description
- Basil Hayden's Toast is a Kentucky straight bourbon that replaces rye with brown rice in its mash bill, creating a notably sweeter profile than traditional bourbon. Finished in toasted oak, it delivers layered notes of caramelised sugar, vanilla, dried fruits, and wood spice across a rounded palate. This approachable expression suits both whiskey newcomers and those seeking bourbon with a gentler, more dessert-forward character.
