New Riff 6 Years Old Malted Rye 750ml

New Riff 6-Year-Old Malted Rye is a distinctive Kentucky straight rye whiskey crafted from 100% malted rye grain, a rarity in American whiskey production. Aged for six years and bottled in bond without chill filtration at 100 proof (50% ABV), this expression showcases New Riff's commitment to innovation and quality. 

On the nose, it presents savory, floral fruit notes with hints of powdered sugar, balanced oak, and vanilla, accompanied by nuances of plum skin and pear. The palate is plump and rounded, featuring elegant spices, saltwater taffy, clove, and a distinctive toasty-malty character. The finish is refined, with focused spice notes of clove and pink peppercorn. 

Founded in 2014 by Ken Lewis, New Riff Distilling is located in Newport, Kentucky, and has quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach to traditional whiskey styles. The distillery emphasizes a "new riff on an old tradition," blending time-honored methods with creative experimentation. 

The 750ml bottle reflects the brand's modern aesthetic, featuring a sleek design with a black label and a gradient amber-to-black color scheme, symbolizing the depth and complexity of the whiskey within. This malted rye expression stands as a testament to New Riff's dedication to producing unique and high-quality spirits.
