Made entirely from malted rye, this is a subtle sipper.
Ken Lewis has been selling Spirits for more than thirty years. He owned and ran one of the most successful retail stores in the country — The Party Source in Bellevue, Kentucky. He sold the company to his employees in 2014 and used the funds to launch New Riff Distillery with co-founder Jay Erisman in Newport that same year — just across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio. As head distiller Brian Sprance was distilling Spirits and laying down casks for aging, they sourced Spirits from MGP in Indiana and sold them under the O.K.I. band (now retired). They are now releasing their own complete line of house-crafted Spirits and are an official stop on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.
New Riff Malted Rye 6 Years Old is a bonded Whiskey that’s made entirely from malted rye. Now, that’s not unseen but it is rare. The result is much more subtle than unmalted rye and begins with a light and sweet nose that evolves into a fruity and malty palate with apple, fresh berries, and brown sugar. There’s also some of that classic rye spice that makes a lasting impression on the long finish.
Appearance / Color
