New Riff Single Barrel Bourbon is bottled at barrel strength by New Riff Distilling in Newport, Kentucky. Each bottle comes from one barrel picked by the distillery's sensory panel. It is never a blend.
The mash bill is 65% corn, 30% rye and 5% malted barley, all non-GMO. Fermentation is open-top sour mash. The spirit runs through a copper column still and then a copper doubler. Water comes from a limestone aquifer right under the distillery.
It ages at least four years in 53-gallon new oak barrels that are toasted and charred. It goes into the bottle at full barrel proof, with no chill filtration. Proof shifts from barrel to barrel, so check the label on yours.
Expect butterscotch on the nose, rounding into fresh oak with vanilla and rye spice. The palate feels broad and full, with a sweet vanilla note. Then rye spice builds with clove, cinnamon, mint and dark berry. The finish is long and rye-led, with bramble fruit, white pepper and clove.
This single barrel line took Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2022 and again in 2025.
Taste it neat to start, and then try a few drops of water. It also holds its own in a bold Old Fashioned. Serve it with grilled steak, smoky barbecue, dark chocolate or pecan pie. If you love big, spicy bourbon with real character, keep this one close.
