Basil Hayden's 10 year old, 40%
Price: $60 ● Issue: Spring 2019 ● Reviewer: Jeffery Lindenmuth
A highlight of the Basil Hayden's line for its cherry cough drop and clove-studded orange flavors that nicely match sweet fruit with spice. There is some intriguing earthiness—suggestions of a mushroom-covered tree stump. The light-bodied palate delivers modest apricot, peppery oak, and vanilla, with sandalwood on the finish. Very nice flavors, just a bit timid.
