Bourbon and Rye Whiskey Cocktails

A Kentucky inspired, Prohibition-era classic. Swap cognac for Basil Hayden® Bourbon and add orange liqueur and lemon juice for a tart, yet sweet finish.

Our Old Friend cocktail is a cousin to the Negroni. Basil Hayden® Bourbon mingles with Campari® Liqueur and dry vermouth for a light spice flavor and citrus aroma.

A modern cocktail with French ancestry, our Dark Rye variation of the Boulevardier adds a sweeter profile while maintaining its assured sophistication.

The Louisville is a marriage of baking spice, dried orange, vanilla, and rye whiskey. This flavor-forward cocktail pairs the dried fruit notes of Basil Hayden® Dark Rye with the citrus notes in the Curacao to create a cocktail as unique as its namesake.

The Kentucky tribute to its esteemed gin counterpart, the John Collins is a simple, refreshing summer drink featuring our bourbon, lemon juice, and club soda.

The Basil Hayden® Bourbon Eggnog recipe is a decadent holiday treat with a mellow spice flavor that balances the rich sweetness on the finish.

Taking inspiration from exploration in the forest,The Redwood features fruit notes from Dark Rye matched with smoke, sherry, and a gesture of cacao.

Our Whiskey Smash cocktail is an intensely bright, shaken variation of the classic Mint Julep with muddled lemons. To put it simply: citrus, mint, and bourbon.

Our homage to an all-time great, this Whiskey Sour recipe encapsulates the spirit of the tangy citrus original with our bourbon's signature spicy finish.
