This Canadian distillery has one of the most exciting backstories out there. The founder, J.P. Wiser, was a New York native cattle breeder who moved to Canada in the 1870s, worked at his uncle's distillery, and entered the business solely to secure grain to feed his cows. He was even considered a pioneer of the trade. Luckily, by the 1900s, J.P. Wiser's was already a worldwide whiskey enterprise that continues to produce exceptional expressions to this day. This is, by all means, an opulent expression. A traditional Canadian blended experience influenced by aging in a combination of 3 different types of casks. New American Oak, ex-Bourbon, and used Canadian whisky casks. This gives us a complex and layered spirit at 40% ABV.

Basil Hayden lightness and approachability is the perfect complement to a great night. This bourbon is artfully aged to be spicy yet smooth, both rich and sweet.
