Tasting Notes

"Basil Hayden's first foray into rye is easy to enjoy. Defined by sweet, rounded notes of oak and balanced by a peppery rye spice, it makes for an approachable entry into the category. At only 80 proof, however, its flavors do come across as a bit subdued; a little higher strength would likely help it stand out in the category."
