I never thought myself much of a brown liquor girl until a few select scotches and the small batch bourbons from Kentucky made their way to my glass. Now I am hooked. Basil Hayden’s had me with its light, delicate flavor. Then along came the Basil Hayden’s Fizz with Basil Hayden’s and champagne topper. I am in effervescent bliss. New Year’s Eve is rapping at the door with perfect timing for champagne fluted cocktails. What better way to celebrate than with exceptional bourbon added to festive champagne?!
