Basil Hayden is about to release for the first time as a limited offering their “Basil Hayden Subtle Smoke”. It’s a one-time release. They have told me it’s going to be very limited & each store is only getting about six bottles. They are suggesting that everybody use a release price of $100. I only got enough bottles for a Bourbon Buyers Club send.
Will other people follow this guidance? I have no idea because I’ve seen this type of deal before and prices quickly can sky rocket out of control. Will this one do the same? See above answer. I’m going to be as far as I can to the Bourbon Buyers Club and release it at $75 per bottle.
Basil Hayden says this beauty will use the same high-rye mash bill that fans know and love but will be slightly differently crafted using toasting and lightly charred secondary barreling to achieve a smokiness in a completely unique manor. This one is the campfire whiskey that people know and love. Notes of charred wood, smoke, with a little of the fresh baked sour dough smell and creamy butterscotch flavors coming through on the mid-palate that finishes with a little hickory smoke. This one is bottled at 80 Proof.

Today I snagged a really special single barrel that I have been working on for nearly two years now with Old Forester. It’s a 128.2 proof dynamo that will blow you away, and you’ll love every single sip. The nose is of fresh leather, baking spices & cocoa. On the pallet, this one is a monster & hits you with baked apple. brown sugar, vanilla & cinnamon. The finish goes on for two days long with notes of fig, cherries & clove. It’s big, but she’s a beauty.
This is my third private barrel of Bourbon that I sourced from Bulleit and my first since 2022. Believe you me, they give you a ton (and I mean a ton) of samples to go through to make up for lost time. The winning combo is something people are going to love. Allow me to introduce you to Barrel #5-B3-82. It’s smooth and layered, with a full creamy mouthfeel and manages to sneak in at 104 Proof. On the nose, I get fresh cut oak, vanilla and brown butter. On the palate, freshly baked banana bread, burnt orange and graham cracker.
The juice here is so pure and elegant, it tastes much more like a $80/bottle of Tequila than one going for half the price, but that’s why I love these single barrel deals so much. The value is insane. This Reposado spent just under 12 months in used bourbon barrels. Golden brown with fresh agave, oak & vanilla. Remarkably smooth finish. This is one of those oddball tequila’s that is good enough to just sip on the rocks but cheap enough to use to make one hell of a margarita.
Rich and creamy notes of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, and fresh baked Bundt cake immediately flood the sense’s as soon as you pop this one open. Bottled at 100-Proof, you get a little bit of heat on the front palate followed by rich oak, leather and freshly baked bread. As it starts to open, you get some sweeter, creamy vanilla notes that cream in as well as campfire s’mores and a dash of pepper. The finish is long, and a bit spicy which leaves a memorable aftertaste and leaves you wanting more.
