New Riff Single Barrel Rye Barrel Strength 750ml

One Barrel. No Compromise.

New Riff Distilling has built its reputation on transparency, craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to the grain. Their Single Barrel Rye Barrel Strength expression takes that philosophy to its purest form — one hand-selected barrel, bottled at full proof without chill filtration, letting the whiskey speak entirely for itself. Aged a minimum of four years in the rickhouse overlooking the Ohio River in Newport, Kentucky, each barrel develops its own distinct personality shaped by its precise location, the seasons, and time. No two bottles are alike, and that's exactly the point.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Cracked black pepper, fresh mint, dried cherry, and toasted rye bread with a warm undercurrent of vanilla and baking spice
• Palate: Bold and full-bodied — cinnamon bark, dark fruit, clove, and charred oak arrive in waves, with the high-rye mash bill driving a persistent, satisfying spice
• Finish: Long and warming, with lingering pepper, dried herbs, and a touch of caramel that softens the barrel strength heat
