New Riff Single Barrel Bourbon is a genuinely high-rye, full-bodied Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey bottled at barrel proof without chill filtration. Crafted at New Riff Distilling in Newport, Kentucky, it features a mash bill of non-GMO grains composed of 65% corn, 30% rye, and 5% malted barley, aged at least four years in 53-gallon toasted and charred new oak barrels following the full sour mash Kentucky Regimen. Each bottle originates from a single individual barrel, meaning the alcohol percentage and proof vary by barrel, resulting in a uniquely singular character in every release.

The whiskey pours an extra rich, unfiltered deep amber color. On the nose, butterscotch rounds into fresh oak with hints of vanilla and rye spice. The palate offers a broad, fulsome mouthfeel leading to a sweeter vanilla accent before a gathering of rye spices including clove, cinnamon, mint, and dark berry into the finish. The finish is long and rye-led, with brambly red-black fruits amid white pepper and clove. Each barrel is individually tasted and approved by New Riff's production panel before selection, ensuring exceptional quality while preserving the natural variation that makes single barrel expressions prized by whiskey enthusiasts.
