Basil Hayden Dark Rye Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

Two flavorful whiskies and a touch of port tastefully converge in our one-of-kind Dark Rye.

It all begins with Kentucky Rye, providing a firm foundation of spice, oak, dried fruit, and subtle molasses undertones for this release to build upon. From there, Canadian Rye from our award-winning Alberta Distillery is skillfully layered in. A touch of California Port, and its complementary notes of ripe fruit, provides the third and final layer to a whiskey just as at home on the rocks as it is in a cocktail.

Full in flavor, yet delicately nuanced, you’d be wise to grab a bottle of our Dark Rye to experience this magical blend for yourself.

Inspired by bourbons with high-rye mash bills, Booker set out to create a bourbon that would offer an approachable taste profile and defy preconceived bourbon perceptions.
