The Origins Of The Basil Hayden 10 Year Old
The Basil Hayden brand was founded by legendary Master Distiller, Booker Noe. Booker was a 6th generation Beam family Master Distiller, of Jim Beam fame.
The Basil Hayden 10 Year Old first hit the shelves in December 2018, and very quickly became a popular expression. Due to the aging requirements, the bourbon was released annually in very limited quantities.
However, much to the delight of Basil Hayden fans, the expression is now available year-round.
How Is The Basil Hayden 10 Year Old Made?
Bottled at 40% ABV, the bourbon is “light-flavored enough to examine on the palate without any lingering harshness,” according to an earlier brand press release.

In celebration of Basil Hayden 10 Year Old’s return, the brand has launched a new, sleek look for the expression.
Complete with the iconic Basil Hayden monogrammed belt, the bottle features a polished dark gray label that evokes a more luxurious feel, reflecting the warmth of the bourbon inside the bottle.
The relaunch of Basil Hayden 10 Year Old comes in time for the holiday season, which is apt considering its initial launch in the winter of 2018. So, if you are looking for a bourbon to warm the coming cold nights, pick yourself up a bottle now.
