New Riff Single Barrel Rye Whiskey review: An intensely savory, spicy rye from one of Kentucky's fastest rising distilleries. whiskey cocktails bourbon
It’s a patient bunch of folks, over at Kentucky’s New Riff Distilling. Not many distilleries can claim to have waited until they had a four-year-old, bottled-in-bond product ready before they put out the first release of their own distillate. Not just a “straight bourbon,” mind you, but a 4-year-old, 100-proof, aged-in-a-bonded-warehouse bourbon, which makes New Riff one of the companies that has helped toin the last five years or so.
New Riff has, in the last few years, also introduced a series of single barrel, cask-strength brands, which highlights both the single barrel variations one would expect, and New Riff’s relatively low barrel entry proof. This is another process that has come into vogue among the leading edge of distilleries, who believe that lower barrel entry proofs result in a better flavor profile than higher ones, although it does mean that higher-proof releases become impossible.
On the nose, the rye grain quickly presents itself, and this whiskey immediately strikes me as possessing a savory combination of elements—toasted bread crust, a whiff of mesquite smoke, anise or caraway spice and hints of red fruit, with perhaps a greener and more grassy note as well. I’m not getting many sweeter elements here—not a lot of caramel or vanilla. Rather, this seems almost, with a bit of savory smokiness, although I appreciate how subdued the ethanol seems to be on the nose.
