Basil Hayden’s Subtle Smoke Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Straight Bourbon | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL
Process & Profile
Subtle Smoke starts with Basil Hayden’s signature high-rye mash bill. It undergoes an innovative secondary aging: barrels are lightly toasted and charred, then hickory-smoked chips are ignited, and the smoke is infused into the barrel for about six months. The result is a gently smoky, well-balanced bourbon that remains approachable at 80 proof.
