Basil Hayden Subtle Smoke Bourbon Whiskey 750ml

Basil Hayden Subtle Smoke is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon finished with an unusual secondary process: lightly toasted and charred barrels are infused with hickory-smoked chips for roughly six months, layering gentle smoke onto the brand's high-rye base. Bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV), it opens with mellow smoke and sweet vanilla on the nose, then soft char, light butterscotch and maple sweetness over caramel and oak. The finish is crisp and delicate with lingering toasted hickory. A distinctive, low-proof pour for drinkers who want a whisper of smoke without an Islay-style peat.
