THE BRAND
Basil Hayden is part of the Jim Beam distillery’s range of bourbons, one of the most famous in Kentucky. The brand honors Basil Hayden Sr., an 18th-century distiller. In 1796, he created a unique bourbon style by using a higher percentage of rye than other bourbons of the time. This innovation gave rise to a spicier bourbon, a signature characteristic of the brand today.
