Description: Basil Hayden’s Bourbon is one of four bourbons that comprise Jim Beam’s Small Batch Bourbon Collection. The others are Knob Creek, Baker’s Bourbon, and Booker’s Bourbon. Named after the late Master Distiller Basil Hayden Sr. who was known for his use of high rye bourbon mash bills. It offers a clear-cut spicy presence with vanilla, new wood, and peach tart. This is a lighter bourbon and easy to drink without a burning sensation.
