About this whiskey

Basil Hayden Toast puts a twist on the brand's easy-drinking bourbon with a second stint in toasted barrels, which brings out deeper, toastier flavors.

It pours dark amber, with aromas of toasted oak, dried fruit and caramelized sugar. The palate is light, with toasted wood and vanilla, and the finish is sweet caramel. It is gentle enough to sip neat and works well in an Old Fashioned.

from the producer

Basil Hayden was created in 1992 by Booker Noe, the Beam family master distiller, as part of a small-batch bourbon collection. He wanted a gentler, more approachable side of bourbon that would welcome new drinkers.

The name honors Meredith Basil Hayden Sr., a Maryland rye farmer who moved to Kentucky in 1792 and made his whiskey with more rye than was usual. Today the range includes Basil Hayden 10 Year Old, Toast, and a Red Wine Cask Finish.
