leaning more on sweetness than bold oak
with subtle vanilla-wafer and faint baking-spice aromas
making it smooth and approachable
Bold caramel and vanilla flavors layered with ripe red fruit
making it an excellent match for spiced cuisine
Basil Hayden Dark Rye Tequila leaning more on sweetness thanBasil Hayden Dark Rye is a blended rye whiskey combining Kentucky straight rye, Canadian rye, and a touch of California port wine. It leans fruit forward, with flavors of red berries, dark cherries, and jam, layered over notes of oak, molasses, and gentle rye spice. The finish carries a sweetness and wine influenced dryness, making it smooth and approachable, especially in cocktails.
