RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.

Tasting Notes
"There's a telltale grassiness to Basil Hayden's whiskeys - both the ryes and bourbons - and it's more amped up here, along with sweet herbal notes of thyme and oregano. Brown bread, pear, Red Delicious apple, vanilla and honey hold the base for a good handful of sweet spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, clove) and oakiness. There's a lot going on despite its low-ish proof, though it's hard not to wish it had been bottled slightly higher to better showcase the full potential of its aromas and flavors. "
