Basil Hayden 10 Year Bourbon

Basil Hayden 10 Year is a refined straight bourbon whiskey crafted at the Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont, Kentucky, under the Beam Suntory portfolio. Introduced as a permanent addition to the Basil Hayden lineup in September 2024, this bourbon builds on the brand’s legacy of approachable, high-rye bourbons. Originally launched as a limited edition in 2018, its return as a staple offering reflects its popularity among bourbon enthusiasts seeking a more mature expression of the brand. With a mashbill of 63% corn, 27% rye, and 10% malted barley, Basil Hayden 10 Year maintains the brand’s signature high-rye profile while showcasing the benefits of extended aging. Bottled at 80 proof, it offers a lighter, more accessible option compared to the high-proof trend dominating the bourbon market. This makes it an excellent choice for those who prefer a smoother, more understated sipping experience. Specifically for this spirit, the distillers at Jim Beam focused on balance and maturity. The decade-long aging process allows the bourbon to develop a nuanced character, emphasizing its oak-forward profile. Given the price point, it appeals to drinkers who value a well-aged, easy-drinking bourbon with a touch of sophistication, making it a standout in the Basil Hayden lineup.
