This is followed by delicately igniting hickory-smoked chips at a constant feed to produce smoke, which is then pumped into the barrel, resulting in notes of soft char and light butterscotch. This unique flavor provides a smoother, more subtle take on smoky spirits, and creates the perfectly sophisticated, yet approachable introduction to both bourbon and Basil Hayden.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eServing Subtle Smoke neat or on the rocks allows the mellow smoke and sweet vanilla notes to shine while complementing the spicy rye flavors typical to Basil Hayden bourbon’s high-rye mash bill. At 80 proof, Subtle Smoke is light enough to examine on the palate without the burn typically associated with higher-proof or overly smoky spirits.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Deep, rich amber with copper undertones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAroma: A mellow smoke character with a hint of sweet vanilla.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTaste: Soft char with a light sweetness reminiscent of butterscotch and maple.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Crisp yet delicate smokiness with light toasted hickory wood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Craft Spirits Exchange","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46013275767006,"sku":"08068601247","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/6368\/2782\/files\/basil-hayden-subtle-smoke-750.png?v=1730839314","url":"https:\/\/craftspiritsxchange.com\/products\/basil-hayden-subtle-smoke-kentucky-straight-bourbon","provider":"Craft Spirits Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
