Basil Hayden's Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
In stock
Basil Hayden's Bourbon has a high rye content (30%) in the mashbill which makes this drier and spicier than your average bourbon. It is incredibly easy going and would be a good introduction to the delights of the other Jim Beam range and a prelude to trying straight rye. A mellow and easy drinking Bourbon and a real mint-chocolate festival in your mouth.
