Bond book appearance: “Carte Blanche” (2011)
Experience of 007 Travelers: At home
” In the toweling robe Bond stepped into the kitchen and poured two fingers of bourbon, Basil Hayden’s, into a glass, dropped in one ice cube and drank half, enjoying the sharp, nutty flavor.

Jeffery Deaver: “Carte Blanche” (2011)
Basil Hayden’s is the lightest-bodied bourbon whiskey in the family of Jim Beam small batch bourbons produced by Beam Suntory (a subsidiary of Suntory Holdings of Osaka, Japan). It is 80 proof, in contrast with its three sibling brands of higher alcohol concentration (Knob Creek, Booker’s, and Baker’s).
