He chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye, and Booker set out to create a similar high-rye mash bill that would offer the same refined, approachable taste profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, this bourbon stands as a tribute to Meredith Basil Hayden, Sr.\u2019s high-rye mash bill ingenuity, as well as to Booker Noe, a true innovator who sought to welcome new drinkers into whiskey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In the bottle of Basil Hayden Bourbon, you will find:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Aroma<\/strong>: Charred oak and sweet notes of vanilla &amp; caramel with hints of dried frui<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Taste<\/strong>: Charred oak flavour that is complemented with sweet brown sugar, a touch of black pepper, and dried fruit to round it out<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Finish<\/strong>: A pleasant, lingering charred oak finish with a touch of dried fruit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Colour<\/strong>: Golden brown<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ABV<\/strong>:40<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Golden Hour cocktail recipe<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-44893\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"897\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Golden-Hour-Cocktail-by-Basil-Hayden.jpg\" alt=\"Golden-Hour-Cocktail-by-Basil-Hayden\" class=\"wp-image-44893\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Golden-Hour-Cocktail-by-Basil-Hayden.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Golden-Hour-Cocktail-by-Basil-Hayden-200x299.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Golden Hour cocktail<br>Photo: Basil Hayden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Golden Hour is that magical time just before sunset, &nbsp;with beautiful soft lighting that presents the perfect opportunity to reflect on the day.
