Discover the latest masterpiece from Basil Hayden, where tradition meets innovation in a delightful dance of flavors. This limited edition bourbon takes its roots from the esteemed Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, but it has a twist—it's partially aged in Californian red wine casks. Imagine the charm of a Kentucky bourbon being whisked away to the vineyards of California for a little romance. The result is a spirited amalgamation that marries the bright, fruity essence of red wine with the classic bourbon characteristics of vanilla and charred oak.
The moment you pour a glass, you'll notice its toasted brown hue with alluring amber reflections that beckon you to take a sip. With each inhalation, you are greeted by an inviting bouquet of dried fruits, cherries, and a whisper of vanilla, all wrapped in a warm embrace of toasted oak. On the palate, it unveils a sweet ambrosia, where complex layers of charred oak intertwine with those luscious fruity notes, creating a symphony of flavor that is both rich and approachable. The finish is nothing short of enchanting, leaving a warm sensation and a crisp, delicate mouthfeel that lingers, inviting you back for more.
