Basil Hayden 10 Year Old Bourbon features the same high-rye bourbon recipe that Basil Hayden fans know and love, but the whiskey is aged in barrels longer to impart a smoother flavor and finish. The result? A liquid that blends well with a variety of ingredients. Basil Hayden's 10 Year Bourbon is aged longer to bring out the notes of spice, pepper and mint that you love about Basil Hayden's Bourbon. This higher-than-normal rye content in the bourbon produces a spicy, peppery nose; a dry yet mellow medium-body; and a long spicy finish with a light hint of peppermint. It's perfect for enjoying neat or with a splash of water.The bottle’s shape is inspired by the original gargoyle leaders who protected the castle from evil spirits and its label features an image of St. Basil, whom legend says was a man who could command nature to do his will.
