What is Basil Hayden Cognac Cask Reserve?

• Basil Hayden Cognac Cask Reserve is a new, limited-edition bourbon that retains the brand's signature high-rye mashbill and 80-proof bottling, while combining Kentucky bourbon craftsmanship with French cognac character, creating a beautifully balanced bourbon.

• Embodying the concept of "something familiar made new," the spirit is finished in specially selected French oak casks that previously held Cognac exclusively for 20–25 years, bringing decades of Cognac character to Basil Hayden's signature light, bright and approachable flavor profile while imparting layers of elegant complexity.

• The first expression in the Basil Hayden portfolio to reimagine the brand's approachable high-rye profile as a passport to flavors from around the world.
