Tasting Notes
Basil Hayden Malted Rye offers a gentler side of rye, a welcome departure from the usual spice bombs. Crafted with 100% malted rye, it unfolds with a delicate floral aroma, hinting at vanilla and toasted rye bread. The palate is surprisingly sweet and smooth, think cinnamon and chocolate, with a warming spice that doesn't overwhelm. The finish is equally soft, leaving a pleasant warmth. While the lower proof (80) might disappoint some, it makes this a remarkably approachable rye, perfect for those new to the category or seeking a more mellow experience. A unique and intriguing take on rye, worth exploring if you appreciate subtlety and balance.
